    If the plan is to meet in Hillsboro @ 8:00 I need to be getting on I-35 @ Hwy 917 by 7:30 if you want to get off and meet me there there is a little gas station on the West side access road. Duane if we are going to get to I-35 form my place we need to leave by 7:00 am. Duane if you take hwy 287 south and exit Heritage Parkway and go right Heritage Parkway becomes hwy 917 and my building is right on Hwy 917 address is 2345 Hwy 917 just outside of Mansfield before you getto Alavarado if you want to meet me there

    Frank, I may meet you guys at 917 but will likely be coming thru there about 10 minutes later. If I am not there then leave without me. I'll catch you guys in Hillsboro at 8.

    Hillsboro meeting location

    I usually meet folks for car-pooling (to Austin and other points south) at the "Wally World" there on the south side of town. They have gas and plenty of room to park and wait for folks. There is a ford dealership out front which is adjacent to the WW parking lot as well. Just take exit 368A and stay on the access rd just past the ford dealership and turn into the WW gas station parking lot.

    Chris here is my cell number (817)480-2365 to let us know where you are. Wally World is the meeting spot in Hillsboro correct? Chris Duane or anyone else considering coming to the show in Arlington tonite I will be there but I will almost certainly be in my wifes yellow 66 Mustang conv. If anyone comes look for me or ask I am a regular and alotta those guys including Cris the guy who sponsors the show know me.

    Subtract 2...

    Sorry to have to say this, but there is just too much going on around here this week to come up to Waco. We thought we could break free for a day and drive the mustang up, but it is just too hectic after this storm.

    We will have to sit out yet another one.

    We WILL be at Katy for the Grace church meet...

    Scott, I think we know you all have been through a lot in the last week! Your decision is very understandable.

    We'll look forward to seeing you next month in Katy when things have smoothed out for you all!

    It's always a good idea to be on time for a car show.....today might have been a little too early! :D

    Will, we're looking forward to seeing you there when we are all there next Saturday.

    Brian is ready for next week's Mini-Meet!

    He just came by to show me the progress on his LDO Maverick and to get a few parts from me.

    We will be caravaning up to McGregor on Saturday morning. If there are any other central Texas Maverick owners out there, we will be hooking up in Round Rock at the Hwy 79 Exit.

    I just talked to Russel Huffman from Keller, TX. He is planning coming with his son. He had talked to someone from Forney about meeting in Hillboro, and caravaning together with you Dallas/Fort Worth folks.

    That's one more Maverick we'll see on Saturday!:thumbs2:
