not that I'm picky, but where did I end up, bed wise?

We've got you down as 1 of 4 in the Kamp Kabin along with RichD (& Duke), Ronr and myself.

That looks like a nice route.  Can't wait to try out my new sticker trailer tires!

Where is the "Three Sisters"??

Whoops wrong map
This one has the route I described above

Is the other map the route to the "Cathouse"?

Oh, I like the second map.  Looks more scenic.  Thanks for the maps Bryant.

I think it'd be better if we avoided SA

If that's your route I'll try to hook up with you at 281 and 46. You'll be just down the street from the "Lakehome". Like 5 miles.


FYI, that route will also take you right past The Dodging Duck brewhaus. It is on 46 on the right as you come into Boerne. Would be a good spot to stop for lunch. [thumbsup]
Seems almost required given the name. ;D
It is a little brewpub in a converted house, with the brewery setup in an outbuilding/garage. There is patio seating in the front and ample parking in the back. It has it's own paved lot.
I went out the other day to sample their latest. Yummy stuff.   [drink]

I am so there

thanks swanny!  that should help out very nicely!   also means I don't have to get quite as much stuff from my parents' restaurant to haul with me (plus, I feel bad taking too much stuff from them)

scott, probably two of those would be nice to have, but we could probably get away with one.  OH, I hope we have a thermometer to keep an eye on the oil temps...

so much to do and so little time...

I think I'm done with my wheel chock setup. Now I have to pack my backpack and figure out what gear I'm bringing. Then finalize my tool set I'm bringing. Then load the truck.
