Hey now, so wuts the word with this Texas gathering? Theres alot of family coming back to Texas, a bunch are gathered in Austin, waiting for something to happen, not sure what it is exactly, but I can get a scouting group out if, anyone wants to be serious about this, cmon kids, we need to bring it back home.....
Wow, we haven't heard a word about anything. These folks hanging out around the Drag or Ruta Maya's or what?
theyre hangin round the drag, some are hangin out of the streets in friends houses, I just got back from New Orleans, and there was alot of folk going to Odessa, so I dunno, but if you are interested in a TX gathering, well keep it small, word of mouth....
Yeah, Back from Arizona and it seems Western states are more cruel than usual this winter forcing folks to Tejas. Maybe the wildfire's had sumptin to do with, but Arizona is harsh on hippies this year. States EAST of Tejas are running hippies out also last few years. Missinghippie shutdown due to little hawks of the planet and Louie-Anna is now a $$ nightmare for anybody. Only logical is N. Tejas as Southern Tejas is a Homeland nightmare. Hang-Tough till Florida Gathering opens its doors. PR
Any ideas on a site? Got a guestimate of how many folks might be interested? We're in a tight spot as far as Thanksgiving goes-have a two day festival to work that weekend; but I'd be happy to help get the word to folks. We were talking to some folks about getting together on Padre Island around Christmas maybe, nothing for sure tho.
was thinkin west Texas, erm...... I think I member hearing about Greenbrier, Tx, out goin past Elgin, I think it was a commune, then theres the Kerville ranch, I can try to get a hold of some people who know a little more about family with land out here..... So, Ill hit you up on more sites I have in mind.... lovin you...
Greenbriar will be a no go for sure...those folks like things quiet So private land is what's in mind? Unkle John, ya got any ideas of specific W TX sites?
huh, yea, i prolly figured that much....umm, but anyway, Im guessin, private land is the best bet, since most of Texas is private land anyway, not many lush national parks... But, still lookin, I got a group pf kids ready to rage texas.
There are a few spots in a couple of National Forests that will hold up to maybe 100 people but the big problem is no water, gotta haul it in. There's are some nice spots on Padre Island for groups of 25-50, but the same problem exists, gotta haul water. Our place is only an acre & in the middle of a weird country neighborhood, JuJu & I would consider hosting if it were bigger. Someone started a rumor on agr that there is supposed to be some sort of council in the Angelina NF, but it is a completely Unconfirmed Rumor Question: Is this going to be a one time get-together type thing or is this something that you young'ens would want to try to keep going as a yearly regional? Also, you know about the Texas Rainbow chat group, don't you Sis? Me'n'JuJu started it just for stuff like this; one advantage for road kids is that all posts can be sent directly to someone's e-mail box (also makes it easier for me to share info with some central Texas Olders who don't do these forums, MySpace & other web networking) Askin' cause we really need to have more folks in on this conversation. Come on Texas Fam, let's get serious & get to having something happening in Texas again :grouphug:
id definatley be interested in attending a hippie thanksgiving fest. west texas would be good. theres a state park in lockhart, texas out east. theres so many places in texas . arent there any parks in austin? keep me posted!!!
there is lots of parks in austin, but, i dunno, Its all up in the air right now... and i would love to have it a yearly thing, we just have to see how it rides out...
HEY!! GypsiJOJO!! I am so happy to see ya! Remember ya'll picked me up on your way back to clarksville Fri.22 June supply run, you were in the passenger seat, ya'll were singing Hank Williams songs,, ,,, ya'll were in a van,, I ended up in Zion camp , and ya'll were up to Montana mud?? Young Gramma,, Hi honey,, so I am back in Austin till next summer. Beina gramma, and I actually got a job recently. I havent been down to the Rut since I got back from my last trip of this yr! Couple wks now,, hmmm, guess I know where I better get,,, Hope I run into ya,,,, Lovin Ya!
fuck yea, I member ya.... Im in Austin too right now, Im glad to hear that things are looking good for you, I do hope to run into you somewhere along the line... Lovin you!!
I have to get my posts up, so please keep up,, I may be free for turkey day anyway! WE need to do this, I been sayin since I got home we need to revive family potlucks here, Heres to love,,,,,
I still think the potlucks need to be started back up at the same place & time that they used to be, at Zilker Rock Garden the first Sunday of every month...it was even still listed like that on welcomehome last time I checked but it's too long a drive for us to commit to being there every month...we'd need to find a cheap, dependable, gas efficient car for us to get to potlucks
so this thing aint happening?? i mean thanksgiving is day after tomorrow,,you can barely thaw a turkey in that amount of time.... oh ,,wait,, im sure turkey is out huh? i guess tofu needs no thawing,,tastes like shit but needs no thawing...... mmm tofurkey,,,, NOT...
Actually, Turkey is on the menu,, vegans, and meat eaters alike,, the importent thing is we are togethor!!!
