I had arrived a day early to set up, so in the morning and afternoon I worked to prepare the campsite, including building a rudimentary path to the campsite from the parking field near the road. This path ran through a forest, across a river and through another field before finally making its way to the flat spot where we set up camp.

My campsite in the woods where I pitched my tent. The main fire ring was our congregation point, but we had plenty of room to space our tents out.
As evening began to set in, two attendees arrived - Abe Levkoy, Colorado chapter (@abe) and Nick Larovere, Arizona chapter (@nicklarovere). A third attendee would not arrive until Day 3.
Once these two gentlemen arrived we set to work getting our first fire of Strenfest started. We built an upside-down fire, inaugurated it by sprinkling it with ashes from the 2019 East Coast Festival of Strenuosity (mailed to us by the indominable @averyb!) and lit it.

Strenfest SW 2020 had officially begun!
Once the coals got hot we made our first dinner - pulled pork sandwiches. My lovely wife made the pulled pork prior to the trip and we heated it up over the coals on the fire. Once it was nice and warm we served it up and it was fantastic. The meat was not ready until well after dark, so we consumed these sandwiches by firelight.

The best parts of any Strenuous Life event, and certainly of Strenfest, are the conversations held around the campfire after dinner. This conversation with fellow TSL members was described by prospective attendees as by far the most anticipated feature of the event, and I can happily say that Day 1's after-dinner discussion was the first of several fantastic evenings we spent around the fire.

As the hour got late the fire died down, and we soon retired to our tents. Wakeup time the next day was bright and early - 6AM - and I suspect we all fell asleep quite quickly.
I recall a light rain started up not long after I had curled up in my sleeping bag - it drummed gently on the rain flies and lulled us into a pleasant sleep.
