We, the Watermanns, the Robinsons and the Gordons are looking forward to everyone bringing their "A" game for the flamingo Christmas decorating challenge. Should be great fun! Can't wait to see everyone!

Hi Jeff, you can refer back to post #59 there is an agenda list to let everyone know what to expect. If you have any other questions contact any of the hosts at the bottom of the list. Hope to see you at the rally!!

Whew, just looked at last years Flamingos.

Maybe I threw that gauntlet down just a bit early...

Come on it's not that hard. We are giving ya'll a big hint with the photo's.... It is so much fun. You should have seen all that Airstreamer creative energy! Really awe inspiring.... Can't wait to see what everyone brings. They were all so creative. Amazing what people can do I am reminded of a certain one with very lacy pantaloons (Kevin and Prim) .

p.s. Mike is telling me how to spell Pantaloons. If it's wrong just remember us Texas girls would have just written underwear !

Fred and Sandra will be attending the Blanco event also -- we were able to make reservations at the Blanco Settlement -- This is our first Rally and we are really looking forward to it! We have been dragging around a '77 airstream for about 20 years and always wanted to get involved in the rallies. Thanks to the hosts and we look forward to helping out in the future!

MMMMWWWWWOOOOAAAAA ha ha (sinister laugh)..

Talked to the wife, who is on vacation, and she said it is ok to throw back down the gauntlet. So game on.

Can't believe how much we are looking forward to this. See all of you soon. (ps: we love frito pies)
And there is a little restaurant in Blanco that we fell in love with on our last trip there. Red Bud Cafe, I think. Right in the town square. Very good food and a variety of beers...

Looking to seeing you guys! We always have so much fun. A fun group of Airstreamers glad to have you all along for the fun!!

Hey there! We are new to the group and have been trying to make it to a gathering for awhile now. I made reservations at Blanco Settlement for the Christmas rally weekend since the SP was already full. Looking forward to meeting all of you.

Welcome Moonpie,

This is our 2nd "Get Together". And we're new to this as well.

There are some good people here on the forums and going to the Blanco Rally. Read thru this post for events and get your Flamingo plans nailed down. It looks like it's going to be a "Throw Down".

Lora,
As you know, know I only drink at forum rallies so forgive my ignorance. Is the year located by the barcode, and what does the box look like?

bwoodtx · 09-06-2011, 07:55 PM

I'm buyin' mine by the fifty five gallon barrell. To heck with barcodes and boxes

kds · 09-06-2011, 08:15 PM

Oh my, this sounds like a fun group!!!!! Can't wait. This will be our first. We reserved a spot. Do we need to do anything else? We are newbies, #3500.
Thanks!

kds - Just prepare yourself for tons of fun. Everyone attending truly are the best of the best Airstreamers - read that as loving to have a few laughs & grins, with no Roberts Rules of Order to give a flippin' do-da about. Reread the thread, there will surely be a potluck or two, and long happy "hours" every afternoon, actually most of the day, to bring some snack type stuff to - but nothing overdone that I've ever seen. Just folks getting together & having lots of simple fun. This "Not Really A Rally" rally hasn't survived & grown over so many years because of any lack of fun.

maryh2omann · 09-07-2011, 08:13 AM

Welcome Moonpie! For any of the details of the christmas rally please refer back to post #59 about this thread. Looking forward to seeing you bring your bling blings, glue and ideas for your flaming! Hey and this judge likes pretty much any adult beverage!! Woo Hoo!!!

Pinky65 · 09-10-2011, 07:42 PM

I'm new to all this too - and this group sounds like a blast, for sure. I will check for availability at the Blanco Settlement too. Holler if any of the State Park site people cancel.

Woohoo!! Now I can pull out my 60s Aluminum Tree and my outside lightwheels and spin 'em on the new Airstream at the Christmas Rally
