Event: Annual Club Convoy
Date: August 7th, 2004
Location: Kaiserville in Austin to Rosanky and back
Description: August 7th was the date for the annual Lone Star Convoy.  Weather wise it was a great day for a drive in the country but due some unscheduled work commitments, various vehicles still under restoration and a couple of unexpected home projects the turnout was less than expected. 

The mission however did go on as planned.  Glen V., Scott C. and passenger Bo T. arrived at Kaiserville about 0900, had some coffee and donuts and at 1000 hrs headed out to the car museum in Rosanky, Tx with Danny K. leading the group.  Even though a small convoy, we still turned heads and got a lot of thumbs up as we traveled the back roads to Rosanky.  

After arriving, we spent the next few hours touring the 200 plus vehicles at Mr. Dick Burdicks personal car museum located on his ranch which is on Hwy 304 about 12 miles south of Bastrop and a must to see if you haven't ever been there.  Getting close to lunch time now, we headed out to the picnic area only to find our own vehicles surrounded by onlookers that had come to see the museum also.  After the usual question and answers we had lunch took a few photos and made our way back to Kaiserville and relaxed with a couple of adult beverages on a hot August afternoon. 

Another successful convoy without a breakdown, accident or ambush.  Convoy for 2005 TBA.
