Donna and Scott Posted March 13 Author Share Posted March 13 Update for the Oct 21-24 Texas Oliver Rally. Princess craft and approved dealer for oliver, has agreed to sponsor BBQ dinner for our rally the night of October 23rd. They also plan to have a service tech there to answer any questions. Hopefully we will have good weather but I will be reserving a covered pavilion.

jd1923 Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 14 hours ago, Donna and Scott said: Points of interest... Done Cooper's BBQ a few times, most every time we drove through Llano, often coming from the west, on the way back to Austin. Cooper's is a Hill Country Texas BBQ classic. If you do head down an hour south to Johnson City, besides the LBJ Ranch to the west, one of our favorites is Pedernales Falls (just 12 min east of US-281). We've been there 3-4 times, when we lived in Lakeway TX. When the water is running it's a fun place, and decent hiking: Pedernales Falls State Park — Texas Parks & Wildlife Department What are the water levels like this year? I've heard that while LBJ was president, he had the Army Corps of Engineers change the direction of the Pedernales River, so that it would run through their ranch, water their cattle. When we lived in Austin, paid our electric bill to the Pedernales Electric Coopertive (PEC). Or you could just save gas money and time, take it easy and hang at Inks Lake! 1 Chris & John in Prescott, AZ | 2016 EII #113 | '01 Ram 2500 Cummins!

John_Goodspeed Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 Donna and Scott -- I just want to let you know that Marianne Odom and I plan to bring our trailer to the rally. I will send you the site number when we register. To others who plan to attend, who are not familiar with Texas state park reservations, the sites usually go fast once registrations are open. So plan to register as close to 8 a.m. May 21 when registration opens for those dates. By the way, if you haven't been to Inks Lake before, it's a great park for the scenery along the water. Be sure to check out the Devil's Waterhole on the far east side of the lake. There is a trail there. Also, you can rent a kayak at the park store and paddle there. 1 John Goodspeed, Marianne Odom and Mattie, a St. Bernard, Labrador retriever and Boston terrier mix, of San Antonio, Texas "Gulliver," 2016 Legacy Elite II, twin beds, Hull No. 128 Tow vehicle: 2002 Ford F350 Lariat crew cab long bed 4x4 with 7.3 Power Stroke diesel, 3:73 differentials and Diamondback cover Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donna and Scott Posted Monday at 11:06 PM Author Share Posted Monday at 11:06 PM This is just an update reminder that if you are an Oliver Owner starting May 21, 2024 call the Texas Parks Department at 512-389-8900. I did reserve the only Pavilion they have for the barbecue that Princess Craft RV from Round Rock will be providing on October 23rd. this Pavilion is near sights 83 to 91. These sites were available when I last checked. Remember to let me know your site number, hull number, and who is attending. I have posted updates on Facebook as well. Rodney Lomax and Matt Duncan are also aware of this event. Hopefully someone from the mothership will be able to attend as well. 1 #837 started this new traveling experience in the summer of 2021 and loving it.

Are you checking on the parks web site or calling direct? They do not show ability to reserve sites more than 5 months out.

Donna and Scott Posted Tuesday at 02:30 PM Author Share Posted Tuesday at 02:30 PM Starting May 21 you can reserve. I checked with the Parks Department as the Pavilion had already been reserved part if the week, but The 23 was reserved for us. She said then that those that want to attend should do so as quickly as possible on the 21st of May because whomever reserved the pavilion for the other dates are probably going to be camping that week too. 2 #837 started this new traveling experience in the summer of 2021 and loving it.
