Wind and dust storms continued into the week of the event itself. I could have handled that, I was ready for that, but then it started raining Thursday night and continued well past noon on Friday, and I was already starting to break down. It certainly didn't help that there was some fast-acting respiratory illness going around camp, with various members in turn spending 24 hours feeling miserable.

We got things pulled together a bit more Friday afternoon, but when the new forecast called for possible thunderstorms on Sunday and Monday, and the declared plan was to break down as much as possible before then and ride it out in as small a space as possible, I broke. I worked as long as I could, then packed up my car and got out before dark.
