Unexpected things crop up? David, not you. A blender! I want my milkshake made with Blue Belle Homemade Vanilla. I hope I'm one of the first 40 Saturday to avail myself of a free headlamp. 7 LED's, WOW! I'm glad you are being frugal in this endeavor. If I make it I will bring some ice.

I was at the camp today walking around at 9 p.m. with no bug spray and no shirt and not a single bug bothered me. The first 40 cavers to show up and pay to enter, get a FREE Led headlamp with 7 LED's. I would like to point out that most of the cavers in Austin, live closer to the camp than I do. As do most of the cavers in Houston. I can only emphasize that if you live within 2 hours of Brenham, you don't want to miss this event. I plan to arrive at the camp on Friday at 8 p.m. with a large truck loaded down with tables, chairs, cooking equipment, extra camping gear, cots, food, ice-chest, etc. If you get there before me, it means I am behind schedule and having unexpected things crop up. Just step over the gate and walk to the back of the camp and pick out a campspot. I should have a blender going by 9 p.m. It will be too hot for a tent. Just bring an inflatable mattress and a cotton sheet and something to block the rain. All the campspots have electricity so you can run a pump, a fan, or any gadget you like to take camping. There will be midnight movies in the lodge, both Friday and Saturday. There are at least 50 cavers that I was unable to reach, so please help me spread the word. While I am saying this event is FREE to many cavers, I am hoping that enough people show up and donate money to help recoup some of my expenses. Tentatively, there is going to be a large yard sale at the event, and a small caving book sale. So bring some money for that if you can. My best guess is that between 3 p.m. and 8 p.m. on Saturday, there could be 40 adults there, 15 being cavers, and the rest being guest of cavers, along with any kids they bring. David Locklear 281-995-8487 ( text-line ) Camp Happy Hollow is a well kept secret. The address is 2029 Happy Hollow Rd. Brenham. That is about 1/2 way between the towns of Burton and Brenham, and south of Highway 290 by 2 miles. There are no landmarks in the area, but the camp has a large stone sign out front to the right of the gate. The gate is just a swinging pipe. There is a creek and small bridge you will pass before you get to the entrance. The weather forecast is cloudy, humid. If it rains, it should not last but a few minutes. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Visit our website: http://texascavers.com To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected] --------------------------------------------------------------------- Visit our website: http://texascavers.com To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
