Let's get ready for the 4th!

Hello All!
Who's ready for some Frio Time??? We are for sure!!!!!!

I know Karl loves it when I try to take over and be Camp Director so I didn't want to disappoint him this year!! So, I thought I would try this Blog thingamajig so we could all post our comments, suggestions, complaints in one place.

Let start out with when is everyone getting there? Kevin & Kyle will probably go down the week before. I will head down Saturday or Sunday (June 30th or July 1st). The parade and everything is the following weekend - after July 4th.

I think the "everybody has one day" thing for food has been working pretty well, what about y'all? And of course, bring your own drinks (of all kinds) and extra chips, etc.
I don't think sleeping arrangements should be too hard now with the extra trailer. Kevin and I are considering setting up a tent but Woodstock may be the "detemining factor" there.

Doug and I (and Heisman of course) are headed down after work July 1st. Let's throw a party for the 1st year in a while where someone isn't in the hospital over July 4th! =)
We are down for the food thing 1 day - keep in mind that we are newlyweds and our Dinner options aren't that stellar yet. Can't wait to see everyone - Doug says "Kevin - get ready for Mueller to whoop up on you"
Love,
Erin, Doug, & Heisman

Well, no family gathering is complete without at least one interloper, a perpetual malingerer and ne'er do well; someone who sits in the corner and everyone asks, "who's that guy and who brought him?" No, I ain't a Kelson/Burns/Mueller/Shelby/etc., but I have earned my Frio Stripes - I have been washed clean by the caressing waters of the blessed Frio, and I said one day I would gird my loins, put on a helmet, take a pill (or shot, or whatever), and see if I could hang with the big boys at the REAL DEAL 4TH OF JULY EXTRAVAGANZA! I've heard many a tale, but only come around at other second-rate times of the year. Well, I'm in. I will be flyin' solo, in that Lo and the kids are rendezvous'n with the OUTLAWS, and I had to flip a coin (two-headed one to be sure...) LEAKEY WON!! I'm bringin' my tent, sleepin' bag, GOLF CLUBS, bug spray, GUITAR, and WOODSTOCK repellent. Only one request - Don't put me with the boys, the mutts, or the mudders next door. I'll find a quiet place to pitch my tent. Arrival time mid afternoon July 3. I will get with ya'll about food requirements. If any family members, the health department, attendees of lesser Southwest Conference Schools, or other naysayers protest my appearance in Leakey, well then we're gonna have to rumble. Meet you on the Con-Can Country Club 18, and we'll see who's standin' after that.

Yours Always - Unka Big E
