[Ponte Alto] Firewood at Pennsic

[Abel Brem of Regnesfolc]

Hello all,
thanks for the note. My group uses Reicharts as well, but sometimes it 
takes 2-3 days for them to get to us. Usually the members who set up 
bring a little wood to last the first three days or so, until our 
truckload arrives.

Since we cannot bring wood in, I thought you may know a place near 
Pennsic that we can pick up a few armloads before the Reicharts order 
arrives.

-Abel
