If anyone decides to give up a spot, please keep me in mind.  I'm on the waiting list with the festival, but I suspect the list isn't moving very quickly...

Same here - if anyone can’t make it, i’d be grateful if you could message me. We have tickets but not a camping spot yet (currently on the wait list). Thanks a lot!

Welp, my plans for 2021 haven't worked out.  I appreciate those who did reach out to me, and I hope someone else here can join the group.

Hopefully next year.

Well, looking around the board for an updated thread for the fiesta and settled on this one.
We will be arriving tomorrow, October 4 and are booked thru the 10th.  My reservations rolled over from 2020 and happened to fall into this window.   Hope to see some LDs there.   I met Holly Scott from FL here at USA RV Park in Gallup - she will be there on Wed.
Who else is actually coming?

See you at the fiesta!

Arrived and mentioned am part of the group.   Parking is 'rally style' which means stacking in like cordwood.   Maybe they didn't recognize the LD group.  Asked about moving when the group arrives.  Answer was we'll see at the time, which I inferred  " we don't want to blow you off today,   we'll wait til later'
Camped on the West side next to the drainage canal.    Hope it doesn't rain too much.

UPDATE:  Went up to the kiosk.  They had overlooked I was with the Lazydaze group.  Many are familiar with our reservation and I've moved to our area.   We are on the NW corner of the box,  10 on one side, 13 on the other.  Will post a copy of the map  when I get it downloaded.

There are some trees, RVs, and some buildings between here and the launch site. Landing field starts 6 feet behind the rig.  Shuttle bus stop 100-200 ft away

Thanks to you Liz, we have better viewing than the YouTube influencers parked near (behind) us! You Rock!

Some of us will be doing LD rig tours later today for YouTube.
