Go to Czech stop in “West” Tx
NYT and I are nearly there. Anyone else?
The Chech stop right on I-35 is our favorite. We live in Whitney and stop in there when we go that way. Saw somebody else post about Saturday breakfast. Maybe on tbe way in Friday a bunch of y’all could load up on kolaches. They have some frozen ones. Not sure on the flavors have only bought sausage and apple that way.

Shoot. I just drove thru on the way home from the store. No one was outside so couldnt tell if any of our bunch arrived yet. I’d gone to the store to get supplies for Saturday’s coleslaw. I’m fixin to make up the pies now, if any of y’all have refrigerator space I’ll bring them over when I’m finished so they can be enjoyed.
When are y’all getting here? Can’t wait to see you!!
Brisket is cooking, see you Saturday!
Four hours in the smoker and finishing off in the oven. I will try a small bite tonight for supper. It should be ready about 6pm. It will then be sliced up and put in the fridge.
HEB chicken will be purchased tomorrow and put on ice and warmed up for the shoot as will be the Brisket. Come to the shoot hungry, you will go away full!
Looking much forward to seeing my good friends Saturday!

I looked at the weather forecast and it is good.
I will see the gang at Lake Whitney tomorrow and serve good food Saturday.
ps
We should all remember these good times are also in honor of El Roy. I miss him! I know he is looking down on us and approves.
See you tomorrow afternoon
Are y’all set up at the rendezvous spot? I’d like to drag my husband out and over there if you’re hanging out.
I wont be in till tomorrow afternoon.
Oh, sorry to bug you then. Got the pies made, had supper and was just wondering if anybody made it in today. Went by once earlier this afternoon and didn’t see a soul.
I bet the
Eakers Luv and NYT are there by now.
With GREAT regret, I must pull out of my plans to attend. I have some sound reasons:
Work: As most of you know, I just started a new job 4 weeks ago, and I am tasked with a major deliverable close of business Tuesday. I have to button a project up by end of November. That's going to be a very aggressive timeline even if I DON'T take a few days off.
Money: Just started this new job after two months of unemployment. While I could have stretched it and dipped negative into my bank account, it just doesn't make sense. As usconservative put it, "A vacation is something people do when they know they have a steady paycheck coming for a long while. You don't know that yet."
Driving time: Alla y'all know I was gonna drive. Well, it's 13 hours one-way. Two days of four would be spent driving. If I'm gonna drive two days, I better be spending FOUR, not two, at my destination. I'd probably have discounted this reason if not for the other two.
I am NOT happy about this. But it's realistic. It's sensible. More than one person has said, "Good decision," even the lady who was going to watch my cats for me.
TheMom, I have a cabin reserved, and that reservation can go to anyone else who is shut out. One day is paid. They can have it, whoever wants it.
JimRob, with my change of plans, I can do a 100 for the fundraiser. Expect to see that come in within the next day when I get to doin it.
I am sad.
I am especially I won't get to see my friends.
I am also sad none of my friends get to fire this, what I was bringing:
That’s too bad. But you gotta do what you gotta do.
Best of luck on the new job.
Damn that was a great post. It “kinda” sums it up!
Not sure of arrival time. My day went very very long today, so have to plan, shop and pack in the morning.
We went back and forth on making this trip.
Msdrby’s family is having a reunion this weekend. She and the kidz are headed to Granbury.
Well, I look forward to seeing you and will miss Msdrby and the kiddos.
Who ordered this goldang rain?
I will arrive later today after this rain clears.
prolly 3 oclock?
Aint doing I35 in the rain.
Cya then!
