How many Texans we got here?

Biltmore Bob · Aug 27, 2005

I can't make it to any of the west coast gatherings, so I got to thinking...there's a bunch of us in the Lone Star State, and maybe we could have our own 'lil git together. There's a couple of us around the D/FW area and another couple in the central San Antonio area. One I know of in Austin, another in College Station, another couple in the Houston area. See what I mean? I'm not a real planner or anything but I would be willing to travel a couple hunnert miles to fellowship with y'all.

Any thoughts?

Victoria. Was born here. I'm 6th generation. My kin folk settled here on the banks of the Guadalupe river back in 1824 when Texas was still Mexico's northern frontier. We've been here ever since except for a breef period during the war for independence from Mexico. Old great-great grandpa did'nt want his daughters being ravaged by the invading mexican army, so he evacuated his family to New Oreleans, a safe haven at the time, until Santa Anna's defeat by General Sam Houston's Texican Army at San Jacinto. The battle of Goliad was fought just 25 miles southwest of here.

OOPS! didn't mean to get carried away with the history lesson. I'll stop now. lol

I love to plan,so let me know what you're thinking and I'll see what I can pull together for us.
Right now I'm working on a pinup photography art show in november,perhaps before or after that.

Ruby, cooler would be better than hotter...

rubyredlocks · Aug 29, 2005

Agreed,i heard it's going to be very warm here all the way through october.

Who wants to get out and doll up in this simmering heat?
Perfect,this will give me more time to plan.Perhaps after the holidays or 1st of the year?

Oops,forgot to ask...is Dallas centrally located enough for everyone?

Biltmore Bob · Aug 29, 2005

I could do Dallas, Austin or San Antonio. I would not be able to got to Del Rio, Midland or Odessa. The Panhandle is out also.

rubyredlocks · Aug 29, 2005

I'll be glad to help with anything in Dallas.Let me know if that works for everyone else.After we decide on location I'll propose some ideas,get feedback from everyone and then we'll get the ball rolling.(The wheels are already turning

Maybe we could all plan to meet up at one of these vintage hanger dances or swing band concerts they have?

rubyredlocks · Aug 30, 2005

Good idea!
This event in october is a great one.I'm rather bummed that it coincides with a concert I'm taking my husband to,so we'll miss it.
