Ray -
The Quality Inn, which is the Old Manor Inn located in Manor, TX is the Motel that's closest to the field.
Dawn can make the reservations for you.

I probably wouldn't test fly a rhino or a F-104 here, but pretty much anything else, I wouldn't hesitate, hope that helps make up your mind

Looking forward to it. For those who arrive late in the evening and have trailers, drop the trailer at the field before you go to the hotel if you wish. The gate may be closed but will be unlocked... There will be people staying at the field. There are 4 motorhomes there already.

Hey Bob, speaking of locked, thanks for helping me out the other morning, I'll tell you that day for me pretty much sucked! I woke up at 3:30, got to the field by 4:20, called you cause I couldn't remember the code, it's pouring very cold rain, I'm standing there trying to open the gate, lock would not come undone, I just couldn't call you again, so I ran the whole way up to my Rig, then ran back (soaked). Got to the airport by 5. Jet to Little Rock by 9. Drove to my jobsite by 11. Finished at 2. Little Rock jet to Houston by 4:30, missed my connecting flight. Caught a flight to Austin at 9:15 pm, at home by 11:15pm. Then stayed up till 2 am getting the isobar in shape for this weekend
Hope everyone else is rested up for this weekend as I might just be sitting back and drinking all your beers while you fly [8D][8D]

I'lle be there Saturday noon for a while, then hit the Oasis (I've heard is a must for tourists from North Texas)
My fiance wants to go Wedding Dress shopping in Austin, so I will try to convince her to drop me off in the morning.
For those who don't have hotel reservations yet, I got $65 a nigth at the Hyatt downtown using priceline (reg price is $160).
See you guys there, I will need help tuning in my new OS .91. You guys need to tell me how much lean is lean.

I was thinking about maidening the Maverick in Austin, but actually I think I may just sell it with or without the turbine.
I have my eye on something else now.....as usual.
So bring money!

the pecan street festival is going on this weekend, she might be happy enough to take that in, it sets up on 6th street with arts and crafts booths and of course there is a live band at every other cross street. then there is the avp volleyball tourney, the championship tour is in town, eeyore's birthday, i know there are about ten more things going on...
the oasis will be at least a three hour wait, especially with the golf tourney going on out at lakeway.. most restaraunts around lake travis will be getting hammered.. you might consider the hula hut instead, on lake austin, not on lake travis... we can talk about it at the field.

You asked for the number of our gate. Sorry about that[:@]. The outer gate is a different number.
I did the best I could considering the hour.. It was sure nice to go back to sleep with the rain coming down[sm=sleeping.gif]
Hope tomorrow goes better for you.
