Heart of Texas Chapter April Meeting Planning Thread

Posted on 04/14/2006 12:09:14 PM PDT by DrewsDad

The Heart of Texas Chapter of FreeRepublic.com is looking to have a meeting this month. Saturday Evening, April 22nd or Sunday, 23rd look like the most promising times.

The location is a bit more up in the air.
Possibilities include:
Walburg(north of Georgetown - Exit 268)
Saltlick(SW of Austin in Driftwood)
Lockhart BBQ(20-30 miles SE of Austin)
Elgin Sausage/BBQ(East of Austin)
Spaghetti Warehouse(downtown Austin)
Ironworks(downtown Austin?)
Texas Roadhouse(I35 south of Austin/Slaughter)
(Insert you idea here)

Anyway, instead of me forcing a decision on everybody, I thought that I would open it up to local FReepers for their input on time and location.

If we have it on the 22nd and maybe near downtown, we could commemorate Earth Day with a short demonstration then head to an eating establishment. I was thinking we could meet somewhere near City Hall and burn a communist flag in honor of Lenin's 100th B-Day lining up with the 1st Earth Day in 1970. We could call for Saddam's execution since he is one of the worst polluters ever. Then we could drive our SUV's and consume massive amounts of food and drink.

Ok Do it Saturday. If several people are bringing kid... let's see Drews Dad, TXBubba, Rose..., AnnaZ a least 8, Rudy's BBQ, has like a park area with benches and it's workable with kids.

But then, I can't make it. Going to the Seton Gala that night.

Saturday would be MUCH better for us..even if we can get a sitter. We are open to location. How far out is Lockhart? Have never been there.

I'm not a very good secretary, am I?

Compared to Blastus (missing in action president) you are the best secretary in the country! (Grin)

Lockhart is out 183 going south past the airport. Probably a good hour, maybe a bit more, for you.

The barbeque place is on the right just as you are approaching Lockhart.

What do you think of Kreuz's vs. Black's?

They are talking about switching it to Kreuz's.

I don't know what happened to Kreuz's but it just isn't the same. The quality went down. Black's still makes some of the best sausage outside of Elgin. I would say Black's.

Thanks for the feedback. It sounds like Kreuz's isn't always consistent. I'll make it a point to try Blacks sometime as well.
