Hi Greg from PY2. I leave tmw morning for CP6.

I am pleased your plans are progreesing well.

Now re your questions.

1) You will be able to put the tribander close to the motel, no problem.

We had 2 Steppir fairly close and they were at 28 feet.

2) Although the lumber yard will probably have the stuff you need I would

not risk it. Get Christina to reserve it for you and then you can pay when

you arrive. You may need to get someone to give her the info in French as

she may not know the techical description in English.

3)Yes there is a laundromat that you can use.

4) We did not have any AC power issues.

5) We did leave a little stuff but now wish we had left more. As you probably

know we had 4 complete KW station so it took a lot of resources.

You guys will have a blast!
