Inks Lake 2024


Recommended Posts

It was fun meeting with so many Oliver folks yesterday. If you were taking pictures, please post. My phone battery needed a charge, so these early pictures are all I could take.

I'm seeing several familiar faces! Keep those photos coming, so those of us not there can experience the gathering vicariously. And have a blast!

Whoops. This should have been posted with the rally post. Maybe Admin can move it to the rally post🙃

I had to set John straight on a few things. 🤣 but after meeting in person, the gift of an amazing Oliver Texas Rally, we’re best buds now. What a great event!

I took a picture of every Oliver that I could find while walking around the park this morning.  Sorry if this large post takes time to load.   Most, of these pictures include the campsite number.  See if you can find your Ollie.

If you want a night out, great food with views of Lake LBJ, maybe River City Grill for your last night here. We’ve eaten here so many times. Love the double pork chop dinner, now at $21. Get here early as they always run out of baked potatoes and you don’t want to miss that!

Well its a wrap for the 2024 Texas Oliver Rally . I have been asked by several if this will happen next year. I am willing to do this again so here is some things I would like to know. Is there another location you would prefer that will accommodate the volume of trailers that would like shore power, nice facilities, things to do in the area? Time frame would still be around the same as this year. Or would ya'll rather make this a two year away rally? Need some feedback on this. 

 

Thanks to everyone this Rally is a success.

Sorry we didn't get more time. Drove by yesterday and no one was around. Glad we met, and I'm sure we will get more chances. Safe travels back to Arizona.

Thank you, Donna, for taking the initiative and making this happen! We'd be in for another. We'll make it to the annual Oliver rally in Alabama one of these days but this was a great option to have until we do. While we enjoyed Inks Lake (and it happened to be one of the Texas state parks we hadn't been to before), I think it would be nice to change the location for a bit of a different experience next time. Every 2 years sounds reasonable and would be less work but that's also quite a while for people who were unable to make this one. Also, thanks to Jason Essary for taking the time to drive over and spend part of his day with us.  

We enjoyed the conversation with those we were able to meet and hope to see you again. We also got to catch up with a couple who looked at our trailer before they purchased. We ended up leaving a little earlier than planned for work reasons so missed some of you but hopefully we'll have the opportunity again in the future.

We were not able to make this one, but are definitely interested in the next one. 

Looks like it went well and lots of fun. Old friendships renewed and new ones forged, no better way to spend the few days.

Thank you @Donna and Scott for all your efforts coordinating this rally. We had a great time and met many wonderful people. We would definitely try to make another in the future. As an added bonus we added Texas to our list of States we have camped in our Ollie. 😀
