Yep that is correct.

Some are hitting a few of the restaurants in the area a day or so before but I can't make it there that soon. Vacation time is wiped out. Seriously love for you to make it. Hotels are near by.

Friday night rib roasts? Damn, I need to figure out my schedule. What time do things wind down on Saturday? Any Sunday activities?

Fly into Austin. About an hour drive north.

The sign up sheet says breakfast, lunch, and dinner so probably go till dark. I have to hit the road early Sunday morning so I will very sadly head back to the travel trailer around 5 pm Saturday to start breaking stuff down so I can leave out early Sunday morning.

Who's coming down when? I was planning on flying in Friday and staying part of the following week. Are folks coming in earlier? Would love to hit some que joints with some fellow Brethren. I might need to change my vacation time.

I was born and raised there. I get this question all the time.

Answer... the best place to hold a bash. Really hope you can make it.

We are planning to make a trip of it to hit some of the places in the Austin/Lockhart area. I am not sure of the dates but we will try atleast a few days (4-5) down there.

LYU370 · 08-12-2018, 10:04 PM

Me the wifey and Gretta are planning to arrive Thursday afternoon/early evening. Will probably just concentrate on tt setup and finding some fast food and beer drinking to wash the road grime out of my mouth. Planning on hitting HEB Friday morning for the rib roasts and various sundries.

Thinking about logistics (may have missed this, or forgotten it), planning my trip and, hoping things don't change at work:

The bash is in the "Frank's Pavillion" area isn't it? Does the Texas Parks annual pass cover this area or is it a Core of Engineers area covered by its pass or the National Parks pass? Temple isn't too far away with bad traffic, is it?

Any other extraneous issues or concerns like road construction or Football games to consider?

TIA,
Sid

pjtexas1 · 08-14-2018, 06:50 AM

No park entry fees. Construction between Troy and Temple should be just 10 minutes slower unless there's an accident. Plenty of back roads west of i-35 hit 317 and will take you almost directly to the bash. There's 2 parks around Frank's, which they renamed Dead Fish, we'll be at the one right next to the damn. Only us locals remember it being Frank's. Have you been there in the past?

Still planning on being there. Got a friend coming too. Wife and kid MIGHT be there, but I think they are going to go down to Austin and hang out instead.

Friend wants me to bring Beef ribs, so I might be bringing a few racks of short chuck ribs.
