Here is a Comfort Station on our Saturday Cruise:



And, here are a couple of scenes from the Cruise Route:

I like the wide-open, no-door attitude of the comfort station. Nice work landing that for us Bill!

[Ken]

Hey John, don't get to excited. I'm pretty sure that's the "ladies" facilities. You see the tree next to the structure?

Dang John, really good to hear you and Karen will be in Kerrville. Been way too long.

[johber41]

Thanks Bill......we are pretty excited to reconnect this year.....been talking the group up to a newcomer in the seabrook area. His name is Alex and he and his wife recently moved from California. He built a really nice buggy, met him at Kemah last Saturday. Hope to get them to go and meet the Manx Club folks.

[Bill K]

Absolutely, try to get him to come. I think he would really enjoy the event and certainly the great people in this group.

If he has any questions I can answer tell him to contact me.

[johber41]

I will......

[Bill K]

Hey John, did you get Alex to come to the Roundup?

That's a cool posting Bill. Great job, as usual. Really looking forward to a weekend with our buggy family. We are also excited that we'll be joined by my sister and brother in law. Sure hope I can behave myself, so stories don't get back to mom...

[Bill K]

If the past is any indication, you are Doomed, Ken. Your Mom will never think of you the same.

[Dave W]

Nice event posting Bill!

I talked to Ken's sister a few weeks ago and told her to get the stories ready to go. She said something to the effect "Ken's always been a mess".

Looking forward to a great weekend end.

Sure glad brother John can join us! I heard Rodeo Rose moved to Kerrville and now rides a steel pony!!!

[Bill K]

Ahh, that explains it. John must have heard Rodeo Rose moved to Kerrville and that's what got him to come.

[Bill K]

I think this was what happened that led to John's memorable encounter with Rodeo Rose.

[johber41]

Ah....good times, good times......tell Dave I am coming to the roundup in shape, so if Rodeo women show up this time, I will be able to OUTRUN him! And Dave, I mean run AWAY!

Hello All,

Below you will find a mock up of the Roundup XII T-Shirt. We are adding a "pop" of color to this year's shirt along with a slogan on the back. Please place your orders via the T-Shirt link by Aug 15 so we can have the shirts in time for the Labor Day weekend. Cost will be $15 - $20 pending the total order quantity. Thanks, Dave

For the last few days, every time I go into the garage, my Buggy starts whining with "When are we leaving for the Roundup, When are we leaving for the Roundup?"

And I just have to take it aside and say: "Just hang on, it will be here soon, and soon you will be able to romp and stomp with all your friends".

[Bill K]

Once again this year, MST has generously donated one of their Timing Pulley Clocks for our Sunday Cruise Poker Run.

MST has been a supporter of the Roundup for many years now, and as some of you can testify, they do make some of the finest quality parts.

So, could you folks do me a big favor? Please email them and thank them for their support of the Buggy Roundup.

Here is their email: info@partsbymst.com



Oh, and I'm also happy to announce that Mr. Poker Porter has again graciously volunteered to be our Dealer for the Poker Run.

[Ken]

That's an awesome give a way Bill. I am a proud supporter of the MST components.
And I am thankful that I will have another opportunity to bring one of these clocks home.

[Bill K]

You may have a chance if you keep and eye on Porter and are sure he doesn't deal from the bottom.

[Bill K]

It looks like Linda will have the desserts covered for the Meet & Greet.

[Bill K]

Could someone please volunteer to bring a few bottles of soda to the Meet & Greet?

I've got the sweet & unsweet tea covered.

[yoboy]

We will bring a two liter bottle of sprite.

[boltman]

We will bring some 2 liters of Dr Pepper and Coke.

[Bill K]

Thank you both so much.

[Bill K]

I'm ready to Round 'em Up.

[johber41]

Oh great...THANKS Bill. Now I have buggy trailer envy too! More medicine please!

[staggerwing]

Fellow buggyr’s:

Thanks for a wonderful weekend! Although we missed the Meet and Greet Friday night, we had a ball and so enjoyed the warm company of everyone this weekend. What a great group! Happy trails to all, until we meet again..

The Mechlers

[Bill K]

We left the YO at 6:30 this morning and as a result had smooth sailing all the way home.

So. I'm hoping you all likewise had a safe and incident-free trip home.

And, thank you all for being such great friends and pleasure to be around.

[Heathwerner]

We left Kerrville about 8:30 and didnt get home till 3: 00 due to the rain and traffic. I had to focus on what direction I was going, my speed and where to make the next pit stop, which made me realize how relaxing the cruises with the Club are. So thanks to all that that make these decisions for us during our cruises and making the weekend so relaxing and stress free. I would also like to thank everyone in the Club for being such great friends and extended family. Cant wait for the next one!

[johber41]

That Roundup was fun......thanks Bill for your leadership, and thank everyone else for being great company.

John and Karen

[Bill K]

Hey John,
Man it was so good to have you and Karen with us.

The only regret I have is we didn't get a chance to tell some good "Altar Boy Stories"

[johber41]

That's ok Bill.......save them for next time. Those memories come from our HOLY days while at Catholic grade schools. They will never be forgotten!
