Well, I know Chris was going to talk to you before then. I wanted to try and hit the road by 6pm at least. We need to set a location to meet and time. I would say maybe 6pm off 35NORTH maybe at the HEB off 3009?

6 is traffic. how about 7? the HEB sounds good to me. but if 7 is too late, then i can be there as early as 5. haha, sounds wierd as a read it. but anytime is fine, i just hate driving on 1604 traffic.

7pm is a bit late, lets shoot for 6pm. Traffic is better than dark driving even though it will be dark by the time we get there.

Well Ill tell you this, icing is the ONLY thing that will prevent me from going. We have 24 hours to cancel our hotel reservations. So we will revisit this Thursday...

As o2cls said, cloudy days make for some great pictures.

But I surely dont want any of us driving anywhere if there is a hint of ice on the roads..

Well getting there isn't a problem for Friday. The drive home might be, but if we wait for a few hours and let it melt (which it will by noon), we all will be fine.

Remember this is Texas, Ice only stays for a really short period if we get any.

I'm reserving the upper level at the Iron Cactus for Saturday night. Starting at 7pm. Unless I hear otherwise very quickly.

Here's what I have to do to secure it:
It requires a credit card, don't mind using mine. We have to guarantee a minimum of $500 in food and/or drinks. Me and my wife will do at least $100 between ourselves. If we have 20-30 people come and spend $25-$30 then we got it covered easily.

Let me see a quick count out of the 35+ people of who will NOT come to dinner or for some drinks. I'll assume out of the 35+ confirmed attendees for the drive that some of you will have a guest with you. I know of ~5 others that will be guests with me that are not confirmed on the list and will eat/drink with us.

Parking: ATXCLS says "Actually, the garage at the Omni, while $7 a pop, always has plenty of room to park, and has roaming security. They are right at 8th and San Jacinto-so not bad at all." There is meter parking along the street. I plan to shuttle/walk from the Hampton Inn to the restaurant to avoid drinking & driving.

Note: Saturday night at the Iron Cactus is the starting point for the evening on 6th St. Come, meet with us that are eating there (mostly out of towners) and have a drink (if you are of age). We can decide if we want to stay and listen to their live band or go walking 6th St.

Sunday at Salt Lick...no problem. We'll see who's up for it on when we get there. Maybe you should caravan back with us to Dallas or are you beelining it to Cajun Country another way?

I don't think I'll make it to dinner on Saturday. The wife and I have a wedding in SA on Friday night and it depends on if we wanna stay in Austin or head home after the meet Saturday.

Note: Saturday night at the Iron Cactus is the starting point for the evening on 6th St. Come, meet with us that are eating there (mostly out of towners) and have a drink (if you are of age). We can decide if we want to stay and listen to their live band or go walking 6th St.
Mark,

In for the drive, but heading home Sat evening, so I won't be able to join the socializing.

If you are coming to Austin from the north (DFW Metroplex) and want to hook up with us we are planning on stopping at the McDonalds in Hillsboro at 8am. Quick food grab and bladder release for the remaining 2 hour drive to Starbucks.

Link to where we are meeting:

I am pretty sure the bats have already headed south for winter.
