Hey Everyone,
In an effort to finalize plans before next week, here is what I've gathered so far:
1. There will be about 3-4 cars at the meet
2. We have gotten directions from the guys at hillcountrydrives.com as to where to go. They will not be driving with us this time around.
3. We will meet sometime Saturday morning
The drive we got from hillcountrydrives.com will start in north Austin and wind its way up through the hill sides until we end at True Grits Grille in Jonestown. From there we head back to Austin. Is anyone interested in a modified drive? I was thinking about the following drive:
MEET at True Grits Grille between 11:30-12:00pm, from there go the reverse route back to Austin, but instead of ending in Austin, stop off at The Oasis on Lake Travis for some mid-afternoon drinks. Everyone who's attending, please chime in so we can get a consensus, after which I'll draw up some good directions for everyone.
