>>One final reminder and a request for RSVPs.
>>
>>Where:
>>
>>Enchanted Rock State Park (roughly 20 miles north of
>>Fredericksburg, TX on RR 965)
>>
>>The total distance to Enchanted Rock is roughly 100 miles
>>... 80 miles to Fredericksburg on US 290, then another 20
>>miles north on RR 965.
>>
>>
>>When:
>>
>>Sunday morning
>>
>>The park opens at 0800 hrs and remember that it IS the
>>Memorial Day weekend.
>>
>>The intention is to leave Austin 0600 hrs in as few
>>vehicles as possible.
>>
>>
>>Cost:
>>
>>$6 entry fee per person charged at the ranger station.
>>
>>After the hike, we will be meeting for lunch at one of the
>>eating establishments back in Fredericksburg.  Cost = ?
>>
>>
>>The Plan (as I know it):
>>
>>Denise and I are driving PY out to the park.  Assuming that Brooks is
>>still interested in this affair, I will drop PY and Denise off and
>>head up to Kingsland to snag Brooks at 0800 hrs - 0830 hrs.
>>
>>If the park is closed upon our return from Kingsland ... probably
>>1000 hrs? ... I will drop Brooks off at the gate and find a hole to
>>crawl into for a few hours.
>>
>>If anyone is planning to be in that area anyway, feel free to take
>>this opportunity to visit beautiful downtown Kingsland.  ;-)
>>
>>After the hike and, again, depending upon Brooks' plan, I can
>>
>>a) send Denise and PY into Fredericksburg with another vehicle and
>>take Brooks back to Kingsland.
>>
>>b) participate in the lunch with the crew and then take Brooks back
>>to Kingsland.
>>
>>c) God only knows....
>>
>>
>>Carpooling:
>>
>>Is anyone else seriously considering making the trip?  If so, speak
>>up now.
>>
>>Derek is interesting in the tip and carpooling.  We may be able to
>>get Derek into Justin's (Austin Outrigger Canoe Club) truck.
>>
>>
>>What to bring:
>>
>>Personal water supply (Camelback might be a great idea).
>>
>>Something to snack upon, especially, if you suffer blood sugar
>>issues.
>>
>>Top cover for those bald spots, gentlemen.
>>
>>Sunscreen with UVA and UVB protection).
>>
>>A decent pair of footwear for rock climbing.  I prefer a pair of
>>cross-training shoes with not-much-wear on the soles over a pair of
>>hiking boots.
>>
>>-- 
>>
>>All the best....
>>
>>Mike
