We had our first meeting for 2006 at Kruez's BBQ in Lockhart, Texas. Hopefully someone will be able to post some pictures of the eat and greet and Earth Day flag burning soon!

The Heart of Texas Chapter of Free Republic had our first meeting of 2006 at Kruez's BBQ in Lockhart. We had 16 freepers and lurkers present. Along with some good BBQ...no sauce and no forks...we dicussed current events and upcoming opportunities to freep. DrewsDad led us in a reflection on Earth Day and its' origins followed by the burning of flags.

We enjoyed meeting a lot of new folks and hearing first hand accounts from some new area freepers relocated from New Orleans.

We will be planning a May meeting and hope to have the details out soon. It may coincide with a freeper opportunity so keep an eye out for the announcement.

Also, we elected a nominating committee to elect new officers for 2006/2007. Hopefully those will be presented at the May meeting.

If you attended and wish to post other comments or pictures please chime in. We missed a lot of our active members but they were out being active freepers! Hope to see everyone at the next meeting.

Thanks!

It was a nice meeting, enjoyed by all, I think.

Since I took a lot of photos, I will be glad to email them to someone who has the know-how to post them. Just freepmail me with an email addy.

Thanks for getting the thread up, TXBubba. Here's hoping that other folks who were there will add to it!

These are fairly large, so I didn't want to hotlink them all and they're not mine, so I didn't want to resize them.

Hey, it was great meeting everyone of ya'll, I look forward to many more commie flag burnings..........

[DrewsDad]

It was great meeting everyone for good food, fun, and the commie flag burning.

TheEarth Day article that I read is:
Earth Day Is Lenin's Birthday Coincidence or Communism?

My flag burning photos didn't turn out that well and it looks like we already have a great pic of Lenin burning. May the flame beneath him burn ever hotter.

"Does that place do take out..."

Yes, indeed, they do - one especially recommends the jalapeno sausage:

Hi Basil. Just came across this thread. How have you been doing?

[buffyt]

Hi, Basil!

I met you at a Ron Paul BBQ at Surfside Beach a few years ago. I hope all is well with you. We are living in Southern Calif. this year and we are searching for REAL BBQ. We can't find it here. We have decided to make our own. We have an excellent recipe for marinade and also for the homemade BBQ sauce. We bought a little smoker grill too.

Take care! Keep on Freepin!

Hey, Buffy! Certainly I remember you. What are earth are you doing in the people's republic of California?

You're right--decent BBQ is hard to come by out there. I recently had to spend about a month in Sacramento. The first thing I wanted when I got home was some really good BBQ!
