Camp site??  Oh, I wouldn't call Bryce Camp "camping."   It's more like 30-40 people sitting in a dark room with computers going ... everyone working on Bryce renders .... while the Bryce gods lecture about terrains and procedural textures.

That goes on from about 8am till maybe 5 or 6,  then people go out and get spiffed, and then frequently go back into the lab for more rendering ... till maybe 1 or 2 in the morning ... then it all starts over again the next morning.

By the end of the first day, you find yourself dreaming in wireframe ... by the end of your last day you start having waking visions of wireframe ... and what isn't waking wireframe you're trying to figure out how "they" got the texture to be so natural.

The last night is always a party.  No bike sheds that I know of .... and then you go home.  Back into the boring real world, where very few people understand how passionate people can be about a program.

I wish that I could figure out a way to host a Bryce Camp here in the Hill Country, now that Corel is no longer choking the life out of Bryce.

Could be worse, could be raining.
