Not too many choices in Buffalo. There's a Dickey's BBQ on the west side of 45 on hwy 79. Otherwise burger joints. Food and drink in the park good by me..
So, the plan right now is bring a cooler with whatever you want to eat and drink. We can decide at some point if we want to go for a drive or whatever. It's just kind of off the cuff for now. More or less an opportunity to meet everyone.
There is a brand new pavilion where we will be but I would bring a chair just in case. Hopefully, I can find a nice shady spot to park the cars.
Thanks to Dan, Mike, Leon and Steve (and his beautiful bride) for taking the time to make this meet happen. It was great meeting you guys and Leon... don't be afraid to lay into that beast. Believe me, she can take it.
Here a couple of pics...
Red was definitely the color of the day. Leon's (first in above pic) is a well preserved 9K mile original '94 that he just picked up this month.
It took Dan's rare Polo II Green and The Beast to keep it from being a clean sweep!
And of course, the motley Texas Crew (myself, Dan, Mike, Leon and Steve).
We had a great visit. Steve and his wife made sure we were all well fed. Even though Mike had to make his own plate. Oh, the humanity!
Weather was perfect. Park was perfect. Visit was perfect. You are all a great group of people and we are honored to have you in the club.
Leon...you're officially one of the Crew, now. Welcome!
Thanks for putting this together. Great weather to let the beasts out for a stretch! The "Red" boys from Houston kept it under 100 for MOST of the trip home Caught up to about 6 Corvettes running south on I45 around Huntsville. One C5 and the balance C6's. Good to see these guys out for a run on a stellar day. We came up behind and joined in for a few miles. Pace was too slow for the ZR-1's so we passed and waved to them. Very cool. Gave the rest of the folks on I45 quite a show. You don't see the porche guys or the blue oval guy out in force like Corvette owners.. We're a better breed, eh?
Stopped at Woody's so Mike could pick up lots of goodies to take home, then hot footed it back to Houston.
ZR-1's invade park in Buffalo TX..
Nice looking set of ZR-1's! Too bad the drivers aren't as good looking...

But aren't we better looking than some......maybe?
Was a lot of fun. I hope we can do some more of these. It's better than sticking to the same roads around the homestead.
It was nice to put some faces to names, people, cars, weather, and the sandwiches were great! Thanks to those that showed up and to those that couldn't show hope to meet up with you in the future.
Oh, thanks again for setting this up crazy Dave!
It was my pleasure, guys. Now get your **** together so we can all caravan to BG! We need to show all those easterners that you don't mess with the Texas Crew or we'll just show up en masse and take over.

I was talking to my wife about going but she knows I'm going to want to hang with the guys and stuff so we are planning a road trip east in 2 weeks and it will include BG. She wants to see the sink hole before it's filled in she wants to see the cars. She's a car girl but after a couple of days she's ready for something else.

My wife is not into cars but is in to road trips. She'll go just to go. Besides who will make my plate for the time that we are there?
Hey, guys. Let's try and get together before it hits 105 degrees and your waiting until midnight when it drops to a cool front like 97 to check your mail. The Buffalo meet at the State Park on 45 worked out pretty well last time and is pretty central to the state. If you guys are good with that (or have another idea) let me know what weekend would be good. The map is posted above.
