Angela's 90 is beautiful.

Donald · 11-03-2009, 09:56 PM

John & Sean:
Thanks, I was asking in jest as I still have one (I hope)-though one school of thought is that it was lost months ago and they are too kind to tell me it's gone- it just never seems to be ready in time to see if anything works.
Best with your respective sales,
Cheers

Sean,
Did you really say "my wife is cheap and I need to sell her quickly"
Maybe I need to read the post again.

We're wanting to leave the Houston area around 10 am Friday to try and meet the DFW crew at their approx arrival time. Anybody in Houston wanna cruise with us?

Don Carter · 11-04-2009, 01:34 AM

Below are links to the maps for the drive on Saturday. Please print them out or enter the route in your GPS if you are going on the drive. There are four before lunch maps and five after lunch maps. There are also three maps that give an alternate way back to Marble Falls after the last winery visit.

Each turn is numbered which is important since we do a little bit of back tracking here and there.

There are three overview maps for reference, but you really need the detailed maps to see all the turns.

Bill,

Wish I could join the caravan, but I'll most likely be heading out of town much earlier than that to check out the drive route. You might check with Mike Swaran.

Korwen · 11-04-2009, 02:37 AM

Don, I may meet you guys at the Bee Caves Exxon since it's not too far from my place, and just follow the rest of the meet. What time are you guys leaving again? i'll try and time it to the exxon and get some phone numbers to coordinate.

Don Carter · 11-04-2009, 09:42 AM

Jim? Roger? What time do we usually start? 10am or so?

I think this depends on when the bar (all of them-including the Open Air Oyster Bar; aka Hatchback in Parking Lot) closes la noche antes

Don Carter · 11-04-2009, 11:21 AM

Donald,

You're right, the previous night's activities could effect our start time. I'm thinking we should shoot for 9:30 since we have a winery stop (20-30 minutes) before lunch, and we want to be at the lunch spot around 12:30. We'll know more after driving the route.

Kowen,

I'll PM you my cell number and you can check our progress when you are getting ready to head to the Exxon. There's a large parking area under the trees next to the Exxon.

SeanR · 11-04-2009, 11:38 AM

If I get this transmission done on the customers car I'll be bringing my wifes car down with a for sale sign in it. So if any of you guys have someone looking for a great car, have them check this one out.

ROG100 · 11-04-2009, 04:47 PM

Donald C,
Lets go with 9.30am for setting out.
Meet at 9.00am for the briefing in the hotel car park.
Roger

ROG100 · 11-04-2009, 04:57 PM

Donald,
Awesome work on the route - a big thanks from all for taking care of this.

ALL Please heed Donald's request and print out the maps.

Also bring your radios and do not forget to HAVE FULL TANK OF GAS.
Roger

Darien Nunn · 11-04-2009, 05:07 PM

I depart on 12 Nov...then start my big drive East a few days later.
