OK folks – it looks like enough are interested – so now go and make your reservation on line. State parks in Texas are not site specific – so if you would please PM me with your confirmation number and name – I will pick up the sites when we arrive on Thursday so we can all be together.

Just for my own curiosity, why would it change to reserving online vs. via the res center once a few are interested?

My typo - just call the reservation center - the online reservation is not very accurate. For Texas parks, I always call the reservation center and save the reservation fee usually charged for online reservations. Sorry for the confusion about that Thomas

I'll be arriving Late(midnight)on the 16th - I think I still need to get you my reservation info.

Okaaa, this being our first time out for TD camping ( or any camping for that matter)we'll be stumbling in the dark. My better half and I will be making the gathering on the 16th and 17th of April and probably heading back home on Sunday. And after seeing some of the TD's that some have made? It'll be like a cub scout trying to fit in with a bunch of Eagle Scouts,lol. Anyway , looking forward to visiting and seeing everyones TD's so I can get some hits and maybe some help on finishing mine up. Comformation number is #1156241, under JT Bond.
Looking foreward to seeing you all there.

While I'm thinking about it, does anyone know if the camp ground allows open fires? Do they use fire rings? or do you have to use gas or propane stoves? Reason I'm asking is I've got a bit of pecan wood I wanted to bring to burn and cook with.

Go ahead and bring it - they have fire rings at every site. You can bring what ever stove you wish to use

Rally Up! I don't see Spinnernut and CD on the list! Who else is coming! Beautiful weather right now! I wish we could camp every weekend!

I just found out that I could get free tickets to Texas Motor Speedway, but I already have reservations here, I choose here! It is fun camping out at the speedway too, so that is on my list for Nov.

I don't have any big logs yet but I hope to rectify that situation next weekend. I just came back from my sisters and they had this truckload (not a load in a truck CD hehe ) of small limbs and small logs. Should be nice for getting a big fire going.

I'll be sure to have the firewood covered this time tho since I sometimes slack on the food.

Thanks Thomas - i got some wood too - going to pick it if from a friend - one thing about living in East Texas is ready availability of firewood!

I was thinking that most of the fire wood I'll be bringing is split from a tree that was about 36 inches across,had to split it with my chainsaw into 4 pieces just to be able to split it with my log splitter and even then it was a boogerbear. It should make a good fire for cooking seeing as it was from a pecan tree that was blown down by Ike. And as it is? I've still got more hard wood to burn than I can shake a stick at.
I used some of it today to cook country style ribs for a family get together two family packs of ribs and some links. Oh well, can hardly wait till the weekend.

Speaking of firewood and cooking, guess I need to start thinking about what to bring for the pot luck dinner......

[james worley]

Just thinking, being it is a small group how about hamburgers and hotdogs or a fish fry for sat. night pot luck
