yea just bring the new blender and we'll take care of the rest!!! richard im just looking for ideas so maybe some of the guys can start thinking about it. i wouldnt mind going to sommerville and i think greaser said he would tell us where to camp and all. its not too far from waxahachie or san antonio. he did say he had the BBQ thing going on if i came down there,,so im in, we just need it to all come together.

esabataj

Just let me know where and when. Once the TX-19 is together I'll be game.

The new blender is already in the motorhome and the pantrys stocked with lots of margririta mix. All is well. The only reason I'm hesitating on the April get together is that I don't know if the boat will be ready. I've got too much money tied up in the motor to get in a hurry now. The Snowman has got some pieces for me and I'm going to hook up with him this weekend @ riverside dragway in San Antonio. Thats the last of it. Now if I could just light a fire under the machine shop I might just make it in April after all.

esabataj

I know what you mean. My pasture is starting to green up and even a few wild flowers coming out. Won't be long now. Can't be soon enough for me. Getting real tired of all this rain.

Did ya ever get the new goodies on the boat?

like you said im tired of the rain,,no the yard is still too muddy to get the boat out and bring it to the shop here at work,and i had to send the wires back, i wanted the kind you make up yourself so i could run them down the back of the heads and under the headers so it will have a cleaner look! plus its a pain in the butt when you want to pull off the valve cover to check things out,the brown truck should deliver today,so im just waiting for the sun to do its thing.

Devilman

I hear ya on the rain situation. What kind of wires are to going to run?

i just went for broke and bought a whole new set of MSD,stuff with the 8.5 wires

Devilman

When I had to buy wires, I tried to avoid those kind cause I figured I'd screw them up, but they were the only kind in stock so I bought em. That''s the way I did it though, ran them under the headers. Keeps em away from the header tubes, and cleans up the looks too. Looked a lot better ran underneath after I got done with it.

esabataj

You said June, right? Sounds doable. I've got my boat all gutted out right now Started out just gonna get my seats done and you can probably figure the rest out. Seat bone connected to the floor bone, floor bone connected to the transom bone... I should have it back together before then though. Sounds like fun!!!

oldbuck40

not that i can think of??? he and i talked about my boat alot on the phone about some issues i had with it and we got it all worked out so i didnt have to take it to him.

oldbuck40

yea im thinking june 17-19th

esabataj

Those dates will work out for me. I'm wanting to go to Lake Amastead with the Del Rio bunch over the 4th of July and that will kind of split it up.

yea i thought it would! you would have to break both of my arms off to get me to drive down there!! i did it for 20 somthing years deer hunting just south of Carta Vally and about 30 miles north of Del rio,,7 1/2 to 8 hrs. and i heard you dont want to get over on the mexico side of the lake without a permit!

Greaser

I'm away for most of the day, and while I'm gone,you guys go and try to plan something on my hometown lake I see how it is......

You guys know I'm down. You just let me know the date, and I will do all I can to help out.
Somerville lake is a great lake for jet boats. The best place to meet up on somerville will prolly be Pecan, which is a cove, where it is smooth most of the time. I guess you could call it a hang out. They have a great beach, that you can anchor the boat at, and just hang out in the water. Only bad thing, is that thier isnt any camping there. But, there is alot of camping parks with in a rocks throw of there. You have Birch creek, in which you can see pecan from the boat ramps, you also have Yegau creek park, which is right next to pecan. Those 2 would be the best choices. Both have great camping spots, with Rv sites. I will try to post a link for information on these camping parks.

We were just waiting for you to jump in here Greaser.

Post up some Info on the places that have RV hookups. Lets put this thing together and have some fun. I really feel the need to burn up another blender.

We got to get Texasjet and Omega in on this. After whitney I owe TJ a couple of frozen margritas. These dates fit right in between Meet in the Middle and the Del Rio trip. Should work out well.
