Hey, Angie! I don't think I ever got a chance to meet you this weekend (how did the time go by so quickly?) but Skip was one of the guys that halped roll up your awning (at least he told me that's what he'd been doing!)

Your pickin' was great! (I liked the bass, especially, even though the mandolin sounded mighty fine, too!) You've got a beautiful voice...

And y'all might oughta consider getting one of those RV patio lights for your regular act, don't you think?

Oh, and I almost forgot, WELCOME to FIBERGLASSRV.COM!!

Yes, :violin :guitar Glen & I play Bluegrass and Gospel Music and were tickled at the great response and hospitality found at "Lost Maples" this weekend. You never know if people will enjoy what you are offering but, these folks treated us like stars....we found each one to be a blessing to us both. And we learned so much from the real Casita Titans!
Maybe someday we can figure out how to do this and travel like all those fine folks still out there touring the country!!

Hope all had safe trips home! and those still there....don't forget us!

Must send out BIG THANK YOU's to all the fellows who so dilligently and quickly repaired my awning. I try so hard not to badger my "Sweetie" about those little details that I always tended to before. For instance; it is important to nail the stakes completely down to hold the legs securely to the ground, Preventing the awning legs from flying up off of the ground and destroying the awning!
I actually did notice early in the day that the wind was lifting the awning and hammering the leg brackets up against the top of the stake heads...which were not completely in the ground, but, I got busy and went off to tour the area with Glen.
Sorry for leaving the thing for others to rescue.
I think "we" learned a big lesson and were grateful no more damage occured than actually did.

So, Thanks again!!!:sunny

For those interested in that Lightweight Reversible Patio Mat that we had under our awning. I found it in my new Camper World Catalogue on page 34, bottom of page.

Also located some online at

http://www.siskensales.com/main/mats_frame.html

It is very lightweight, doesn't kill the grass, easy to clean and folds up smaller than the indoor outdoor carpet Mats. We have several friends that are big believes in them and we finally came across a vendor at one of our Music Festivals. Ours is about 6 x 9.
Good Luck:sunny

we managed a bluebonnet campout a couple of counties away, between Fredricksburg and Llano off Hwy 16, see?

At least we got out into the bluebonnets (and the white ones and the pink ones, really!)

Oooohh, Nice shot, Don!!

Yep, you weren't too far from us... the flowers are fabulous this year, no?

Weather's not bad, neither! (Although they're saying it'll be 37 degrees Wednesday morning in the Austin area. :nope)

We got 23 (as in twenty-three) people in the Bluebonnet hosts' Casita this weekend!

How's that? :cblob :cblob :cblob

Legacy Posts · 04-07-2003, 07:46 PM

You win! Wow ooh Wow! That must have been a sight to behold.
Wish we could have been there.:omy :omy :laugh :laugh :laugh

Legacy Posts · 04-07-2003, 07:48 PM

Yeah, then we would've had 25!!

Although, actually, I don't think 25 would've fit. Remember, Marlene's trailer's a Patriot!

:ola :ola

Should this be in the Jokes section?

We really enjoyed the weekend. It was just a little too short. We traveled about 725 miles and it was worth every mile of it. I even ate a banana boat! But Mary did not prepare any boiled okra. Oh well, maybe she will do that next time.

Did you really have 23 bodies in a Patriot? :huh We only had 17 people attending our rally. We really had room for more. After all, the bathroom was empty and so was the closet. Hope we get to see some pictures!:wave :wave

Legacy Posts · 04-07-2003, 09:24 PM

You know what, Leslie? I was thinking this morning, nobody not once (not within earshot anyway) ever said anything remotely connected to okra at the Bluebonnet festival! (Hooray!)

Sorry about that banana boat. I skedaddled when Barb showed up, leaving Skip holding the boat(s). He'd never even seen one, much less made one before. So yours was a bit skimpy on the marshmallows and chocolate chips. (And I completely forgot about bringing the rum! That was Paula Gold's job...) Better luck next time, I hope!

Was really good to finally meet you and Donna!

We had 24 Casitas and (I think) 47 people. Plus several visitors on Saturday afternoon. (Hi, Winston and Kathleen!!)

Yes, we really stuffed 23 people (I prefer not to call them bodies, thankyouverymuch!) into Marlene's Patriot. You can ask Nick. He'll corroborate; he might even show you how we did it, at Lake Lopez.

I don't think there were any photos made, although maybe Bob Hunt took one, but we could probably draw you a picture. Would a diagram suffice?

OK you win! Folks at Lopez Lake, 23 is the number to beat. Hope the axle didn't get bent. Those little suckers are strong, aren't they?:banana :banana

:wave Hi, Leslie and Donna! Nice to see you again.

No, you didn't see me, but I saw you! I couldn't make it to the Fest, but saw you stopped at a traffic light just across the bridge on your way out of town in Marble Falls. My trailer was already parked, so you wouldn't have known I was a kin! ;) If it wasn't you, then it was someone else with 'Mesiquite, TX' on their tire cover.

:E :E Sneaky, aren't I?

Legacy Posts · 04-08-2003, 03:45 PM

I'm glad someone took some pictures, thanks Don. They are very pretty.
Now I'm waiting for the 23 in a TT picture.

Legacy Posts · 04-09-2003, 08:49 PM

Suz,
As we passed over the bridge, we looked down and saw what we thought was a Casita parked near the water. I believe it had an A/C in the rear "window." What that you? I looked for a turn to make it down there, but with traffic and such we just kept going.

Sorry we did not get to see you.

Leslie and Donna

:sporty That was me! Actually, that was my '89 Casita...I was behind you in my car...turned left at the stop light where you waiting for it to turn green!

Here are a couple from the birding walk on Sunday morning.

It was a little foggy. First morning after the time switch.

The service road we walked along ran parallel to the river, which you can just see behind us.
