This is really just for the two or more TOR people going. BearsFan07, and myself so far are going along with the Expo crowd.

Sean's comments.
"I think I'm going to head to Colorado Bend park, or something close to San Saba, and camp on Friday. This way I'm not trying to get up and drive 2.5 hours Saturday morning.

Although Colorado Bend is almost an hour away! Just looked it up, much more than I thought. Time to find something a little closer maybe.

This place is only 17 miles from San Saba and only $6 a night to camp. http://www.bendtexas.com/pricing.htm"

I think that is a pretty good idea! It's a two day Trip driving down dirt roads and seeing what we can see. I am sure someone will break something! I am planning on taking the runner, and pray to find obstacles and come back with good stories.

At this time no firm date, but its looking like one of the last weekends of Feb. Weather should be perfect for camping, provided you have a good sleeping bag. :)

Define dirt roads. Pre-runner friendly? I wouldn't think so but just checking, if so I would be very interested. Can't view the thread on expo, not a member.

This interweb thing sucks! That trip looks sweet and I would love to represent Morning Glory! Too far for me though.

"This trip is more about the scenery and comraderie then technical driving or challenges. This whole trip can be completed in a stock high clearance 2wd vehicle. We will be travelling past a few exotic animal ranches and meandering our way through the James River valley before returning back east towards Marble Falls." http://www.expeditionportal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=54817

Thanks Scott. I still cannot view the portal thread, even the link you posted just prompts me to sign in, guess I will have to join.

Very much so, I'm going to wait until I hear a date before I commit to it but I am very interested. Truth is my off road truck is not up to par yet and there are VERY few things I can get away with doing in my Tacoma.

Nice, the same weekend as my son's birthday party.

Cool... He'll love the camping trip. :)

and you will have to pick up the Ice cream a little closer to campsite or pack it in dry ice.

My wife thinks you guys are funny. No seriously, she said I could do what ever I wanted as long as I was at the party at 3 pm on Sunday, meaning I would have to break away a few hours early and start heading back home.
