I really would have enjoyed that today for sure, but I've naturally put off everything that needs to get done before Sam leaves for camp until today and tomorrow (so not only am I a control freak who locks threads, I'm also a horrible procrastinator!)



All NEXT week, on the other hand, I intend to be on my bike every friggin' day- all day [evil]  Old Monk anyone?

Y'all are crackin' me up! This thang is 4 1/2 months away, & y'all are already calling "shotgun"!  [laugh]
I just hope to still be ALIVE in October... :P
However I do applaud your spirit [thumbsup]

Carry on...
+1  [cheeky]

That said.
I am just going to throw this out there. Due to finances, come October it could be "bike or beer" for me.
In other words, I am selling my truck. I doubt very seriously the bronco will be running by then. So I can either cage it with beer in the econo box, or ride up.
So, though it is a little far out for me to be sure I can go much less my "arrangements", someone might plan ahead on swinging by the lake house to pick up beer kegs.

For those that don't know, when you turned off 281 onto 46, you were about 8 miles from the lake. Around 10-15 from mi casa.

Haha, Koyote Ranch (Asia specifically) called me just now thanking me for mailing the last key back and to say that they look forward to us coming back again.  I told her to watch out for this October.  [laugh] [laugh]


Jason, I'm sure people will be willing to make a stop and pick you and delicious beer up  [beer]

Honestly, I had so much to drink, I don't know where I slept most of the time there.  I know a couple of people who also had this challenge.

Cheers,

Hey! I resemble that remark... ;D



[laugh]

edit @ Bryant and Scott. Thanks guys. Even if I can't go for some idiotic reason, I am sure I'll have a few kegs ready to go. ;)

LYD,
I may drop the wife off in S.A. to stay with friends. If she dosn't go,your in.  We will slow flight over the truck for 20 min. Haul ass to the hill country. Drink beer for a few hours. Call every twenty minutes asking " Are you here yet?"

Lisa, since you're the "Chief Instigator" on this Gonzo HC trip, I'll pass some of the info over to you.

Just give KR a call and tell them that you are organizing a trip down there for us and that we've stayed there before.  They should remember us, let them know it's the Ducati Group again and they'll know us.

That should give us a discount on the stay since we've been there before.  The big cabins are #20 and #26.  I think cabin #26 is better overall, it has better parking (i.e. level and more abundant), it's close to the pool/hot tub area, and the smaller cabins for others in the group. 

If we get cabin #26, let them know that we'll probably have other smaller cabins reserved eventually.  If they can save the nearby smaller cabins so the group is in the same area that would be great.  They should start a file for the group if we get more reservations.

Oh yeah, I'm down for the big cabin  [thumbsup]

What he said...

Cabin 26 is the way to go, & reserve the 2 on either side.

Ask for Asia (Aja ?). SHe'll remember us [evil]
