Next stop was J. Lorraine Ghost Town, for a look see at the facilities for the Rally. Had a good size group after lunch, probably 25 people.

After looking around at J. Lorraine, we were planning to head over to the Allupjena Benefit & Poker Run, but unfortunately we got stopped at IH35, it was closed going south.  So we ended up just going home after trying several alternate routes and being blocked at every turn. Bummer!

Next stop was 290 Cafe, to have lunch with all our TMRA II brothers and sisters. Had a great planning meeting about the TMRA II State Rally, that will be held October 7th – 9th at J. Lorraine Ghost Town in Manor.  The rally has a new name, now the “Take Back Texas Rally”.  How appropriate for a political organization.  Anyway, it sounds like it will be a bunch of fun.

Oh, yes, Stephanie has a new Beau (Sons Of The South “Maverick”) in case you can’t tell from the first two pics.

We got to help Forrest finish up a couple of things, including running the grinder and making sparks!
