Yeah, but marathons are also in the same boat. There are very few that fit with my schedule. Besides, I've already committed to it. Its tough balancing all my hobbies!

Good work on the rooms. I've stated at McHorters. It's close but I've stayed at better motels in Mexico.

As far as food. I may bring my competition pit out, and we could cook some briskets for Saturday night.

No problem, have some spare time waiting for my Raptor to leave "ramp 59" blackhole. I'll work on food joints tonight..

I wonder if Raptor Expeditions would be interested in sponsoring our run?

dunno. Baja Racing of Texas is putting on the run, so they would have to get in touch with their guy. My hunch is that those expeditions are going to stay west coast.

Sounds awesome to me! I believe that is peak crawfish season too... If people want to pitch in and do low country boil one night, I could bring some fresh crawfish and a pot/burner for whoever wants some!

Is the pre/post scenic trip still happening? Dubs? SNK?

Big Bend & Terlingua? Depends on how much time you have and the gun range possibly. I won't be down any earlier because I am staying in Texas afterwards and not going home.
