    Default Austin Herf #2 - 2010

    Hello brothers,

    I am trying to organize a herf to be held in Austin, TX. sometime in the near future.

    I have had a few people show some interest. I need to get the dates narrowed down.

    I checked with a few people and it looks like April 10th would work with some and earlier dates for others.
    For those of you that were thinking it was going to be a little earlier how does the weekend of April 10th sound?

    I am trying to get this together and I know we will have a good time.

    Thanks,
    Donald

    I think I could make it that weekend, my wife and I will make a mini-vaca out of it - any good shopping centers near those cigar bars?

    Many shopping centers! Most of the shops are in close vicinity of a mall or large strip mall.
    Except for downtown, but there is so much to do on 6th street... Something to please everyone.

    Default Reminder Bump...

    April 10th is right around the corner gentlemen. How about it Nelson, Paddy, Buzz? I know all three of you mentioned coming to Austin. I am looking forward to it.
    And of course anyone and everyone is welcome.

    All depends on the move. This move came unexpected.

    Very Hectic ! This move was rather quick and unexpected. Donald, as you know my wife went to West Plam Beach in Feb to help her dad through some surgery. He is going on 82. She relized at that time he is not able to live on his own anymore. We just bought him a brand new car last year and she siad it had 10 scuffs and dents from his poor driving, as well as he just can't do the day to day anymore. We also had hired a home health care worker for 6 hrs a day 5 days a week for him. Come to find out she was milking him out of $600 - $800 a month with her sob stories of how hard her life is. FUCK HER ! I'll be glad when the move is over. her father will be moving up in June. My wife has already filed all the papers to take over control of his affairs. We where planning to be in Mexico for all of April , May & June. But it looks like it will be more like June, July & August. Great it will only be about 110 fuck dregress then, and we get to take the 82 year old booze swilling old man with us. Fucking Fantastic !

    Unfortunately I am going to have to skip it this time, we are in the middle of dealing with my mother-in-law's estate and one of the older siblings seems to think that the best way to remember her mom and honor her last wishes... is to accuse everyone of stealing items from the house, threaten to sue everyone, and generally just make everyone more miserable then they already are in dealing with the death of our mom.

    I'm sorry I have to back out of this one, but I will definitely be interested in the next one (and so is my wife).

    Sorry to hear about your mother-in-law. No need for the drama (crap) that your in-law is causing at this time for you and yours. I went through the same when my Father passed. I will keep yall' in my prayers.
