Funny, you didn't notice some people parked in front of the wrong gate and
blocked access to a private driveway, and the local sheriff was called?
Also, didn't you notice someone left their bags on the wrong end of the cave

Talk about great minds thinking alike, Lyndon.
I have been thinking the last couple of weeks of contacting the folks

silted back in.

Lyndon, I don't know if you were there that trip, but we weren't blocking a

No hard feelings Charles. Partly my fault as I should have been there during
the tank haul to help organize the herd, but I was burned out from the ICS
and didn't want to go caving for a while.

first trip to Longhorn (was too busy during ICS to go), and everything
seemed to go ok, except for GP getting a bit turned around while trying to
find the back entrance.
No worries Lyndon, I just hate to see things go bad
I get stressed out every trip to Longhorn. Herding cavers and managing
relationships with the concession managers is tough.

It might be fun, especially, if we limit the size of the group and throw

Now I remember. The 3rd incident was trouble with the key, as Ellie
mentioned in her email to Mark.
But also, there was the fajita incident during the ICS itself. The Longhorn
concession restaurant prepared a fajita buffet for 100 people, for the ICS

Regarding the vehicle issue, the way this gets solved in Alabama is when
someone blocks a gate or even an old 4 wheel drive road, the offending vehicle
is pushed off the road or rolled down the hill and out of the way. See, this
solves the need to call law enforcement and saves a lot of time.
We just dug it back open here recently! Well, I guess its been over a year.
Fantastic through trip for anyone who has not visited the cave.

That one was easy.I assumed the Crownover entrance was on land owned by
Robert Crownoverwho is a well known resident of the Marble Falls
area.and managed sales for the Cold Spring Granite Quarry just outside of
town.
Before the ready availability of cheap Indian, Chinese and
Texas Red (pink) granite or whatever it's called from these quarries is still
the most beautiful. I think this because of out state capitol building, one of
the most beautiful structures ever built by man. This same granite forms the
