First, I apologize in advance for this long winded email...

Well it was bound to happen at some point, we have sold out of RV slots for Christmas Rally at Texas Wine Country. We still have cabins remaining at the rally rate. The park is fully booked for that weekend. There is a lot going on in Fredericksburg that weekend, and all the snow birds are incoming for the winter...

Since I believe we have people that still want to attend and we are sold out at Wine County, I spoke to Peach Country RV Park. Peach Country is just 4 miles east on 290 from Texas Wine Country, Lonestar Birds has had Xmas rallies there before. She said they have slots still open that weekend. They offer discounts for Good Sams/Taco/Military card holders @ $27 per night ($30 without). If you wish to stay there, please call her soon (she believes they will sell out shortly as well), she asked that you let her know you are with the Lonestar birds rally in Fredericksburg that weekend (Michael Brundridge – host) and want to reserve a slot. If you don’t have a toad, we will find a way to taxi you back and forth, and get you engaged in all the activities at Wine Country and elsewhere, this club is getting big!

Lonestar Family Member Note: As many of you may already know, we lost James Baber this year (June 25, 1928 - May 23, 2013). We would like to extend an invitation (paid for by donations) to Sally for the Christmas rally as one of our extended family members. The Bungalow at Texas Wine Country cost $253 for two night stay, for those wanting to donate, please contact me at mbrund@yahoo.com.

Below is a list of the people I have received confirmation are attending (I'm short 5 coaches), if you are not on this list or the info I have for you is incorrect, please send me an email ASAP to get added or correct the info. I want to make sure we order enough food, etc. and I need a headcount to do so. And if you are decide to stay at Peach Country, please let me know as well so I can make sure we have the correct head count for food purposes.

I have been asked by several what the guidence is for the White Elephant Gift Exchange: As in the past, we suggest you keep the cost under $20 per gift.

We look forward to visiting with everyone in December. Till then, safe travels.
