John,
Is there anything any of us can do to help you get set-up and is there anything you would like us to bring? Extra folding chairs?, snacks, strippers, drinks, etc?


Strippers would be really cool! Think I can talk Dana into it?? Well I'm really not sure what to prepare for. How many people will there be? Maybe we should try and get a head count. Should I have food brought in like Pizza or something similar or should I have all kinds of snacks and some boiled shrimp, things like that? Booze? Prolly gonna need some help here.

No head count yet, once I get the schedule confirmed for all the stops, I will start emailing folks we haven't heard from in a while asking them to give me an RSVP in return for directions to the first stop.

With that in mind what do you guys think of my suggested times for each stop, in particular the first. Should we start this thing at 3 or 3:30. The only set time that really can't be moved is Greg's place at 6:30, because that will coincide with Greg getting back from his store.

As for food and drinks here are my thoughts.
For drinks, it will be BYOB or A, and then if John you could have some soda, water, etc. for others.
For food, I would love to try and have an accurate headcount and then have us place an order with some nearby take-out place and then everyone chips in some money to cover the cost of said order. For example, buy some Brisket, Ribs, coleslaw, and beans from a BBQ place nearby or something along those lines and then serve it family/ buffet style. Or just pizza could work. Or any other good place that does those type of large family style take-out orders down south.

My $0.02

Did someone say BBQ?

Hmmm.... The Salt Lick isn't that far away from Johns' place.

On the other hand BBQ can get messy so maybe pizza is the safe choice, not to mention the most convenient.

I might just have to swing through Driftwood on the way home though!


As far as a start time I'd think the earlier the better so 3pm would be my choice - assuming that works for Gomez. For those that can't make it to the earlier HTs on the tour and for the event someone gets lost, perhaps Scott could email everyone who RSVPs the addresses and phone numbers for each of the hosts on the tour?

I think 3pm is a good start time, will allow a little more time in-case the inevitable happens! What ever type of food you guys want is fine with me, I'll eat the crotch out of a dead camel. I will defiantly get the sodas, ice, plates(paper?) etc lined up. We could start a head count here, I'll give it a try.

Head count for the HT tour of Austin:

John & Dana-2

(words escape me..., but let's all hope Camel is not on the menu)


Add me to the head count (will be flying solo).
