EVENT: Heartland Chapter Rally: TX, Elmendorf - 10/6/2017 to 10/8/2017

[2psnapod2]

Would love to come, we never have been to a Rally but our TH is in the shop for warranty work.
When will the next one be in Texas?

Sorry you can't make it...unfortunately stuff happens to prevent the 'fun in life' from happening. There will be rallies in west Texas, north Texas, Oklahoma and Louisiana next spring (not real sure of dates) and also a Regional rally in Branson in May. Just keep your eye on the 'portal' page of this forum where all of the rallies are listed on the right hand side of the page.

If you're within easy driving distance, you could go for the day on Saturday, stay overnight in a hotel and go home late Sunday. We did this for the North Texas Rally, just to see our Heartland friends and enjoy the fellowship! They are lots of fun, you need to go!

Hey folks, don't know if we will make it to the rally or not. We have had 3.25" of rain in the last 3 hours and it looks like more on the way. I park my unit on the lot next to the house and it may be to wet to try and get it out without having problems.

Headed out early Wednesday morning, hopefully. Pretty exciting day. Was checking trailer tires today and right rear was down to 80 lbs. refilled to 110 and within a hour it was down to 98psi. Lug nuts were super tight, so I call Good Sam Roadside Assist to change tire with spare. Help arrived within 30 minutes. He also checked out the tire and found a crack in the inside of rim. So with spare mounted on right rear (beautiful steel wheel ), it was off to Discount Tire to find a new wheel. First store didn't have one, but found three at store on other side of OKC. I went there and got tire remounted to a snazzy white steel wheel (is my sarcasm showing yet?). At least it was only $60. So now I have three different wheel styles.

Keeping our fingers crossed and saying a prayer that you'll be able to make it! But, of course, we will certainly understand if you're unable.

Tim & Beckey Sacrey have suggested a fun outing this afternoon for anyone that is interested.




We'll be visiting El Mercado - also known as Market Square.

(Mexican shopping area boasting 100 shops over 3-blocks, with apparel, handcrafts & food galore).




Address: 514 W Commerce St, San Antonio, TX

Hours: 10 - 6




Afterward we'll enjoy a meal at Mi Tierra. (Landmark Mexican cafe & bakery with classic fare, margaritas & mariachis in festive digs open 24/7)




Address: 218 Produce Row, San Antonio, TX




If you'd like to join us for a little Mexican shopping fun we'll line up (like yesterday) about 1:50 or so and will LEAVE at 2:00 pm.




If you're not interested in shopping but are interested in trying this landmark eating establishment we'll meet at the restaurant at 4:30.




PLEASE let Michael or I know if you plan to attend (or not) one or both so that we don't leave anyone behind.

Yes I would like to go shop but Don isn't a shopper but would like to go to eat. Anyone not shopping but going to eat that he might catch a ride with?
