because I missed the whole thing! Too many posts to see them all - I got sidetracked with the shaking engine thread

Your honesty and thoughtfulness is appreciated.

Once you finally "find" Dan's place, it is near perfect for a GTG. Would be as enjoyable as Randy's place {the place all future GTG's will be measured by}, and the "herds" are about the same size.....

Hello Everyone.

I had mention before, trying to get a North Texas GTG going, and had offered up my place.

But I think Dan's Place would be better.
It is really nice.
He has some really cool stuff there, but I don't want to give away any secrets.

I would bring the dead animal, and try to cook it, as penance for my earlier misdeeds.


***___***___***___***___***___***___***
Any time but June 9th thru the 17th
Me an Tracy are getting married in my backyard that day!!!!!
Dan, Jimmy, and other local members are quite welcome.
I was gonna officially invite you guys soon as we had things settled.

I have a nice pile of roadkill?

Thank You

You know you NTX guys, since we're talking about meets, I would like to have another one of those statewide meets in Centerville again sometime this summer. I will start looking into planning it soon, since the spring semester is drawing to a close, and I'll have a little more free time. It'll be held sometime in June or July if everything goes according to plan.

Did someone say "VO"? I'll bring the 7UP and red cups! I gotta buy ice in texas as if I brought if from florida it'd melt by the time I got there.

Informal GTG at Coyote Ridge Ranch, in north Texas, is in the works.

Date, TBA, will be mid May.

Food, camping, music, bonfire, perhaps a winery tour of Grayson Hills Winery(half mile up the road), parts cars to pick over...

There's a couple of very nice B&Bs nearby for those who need lodging.

North Texas GTG, mid May

Yeah, you seem more stand up than that. Good show!

No problem, just as long as you never say my mother is a hamster and my father smells of elderberries, again.
