Thanks for posting a new rally point @2WheelRob. I was looking for a recently and thought something was wrong with the app. Yeah I won’t be able to go to the December Meet up though. I’ll be volunteering at the H-E-B feast of sharing in San Antonio. Happy holidays everyone. Have a great Christmas and a happy new year.

I was looking at the location but it appears to be in the middle of no where? Do we bring our own coffee and breakfast?
I see a large field with a building under construction on Google maps. Does the park have a name?

It's at five mile dam park. We meet in the gravel lot on the east end of the park. I put the what3words location in the notes.

Apologies, but what is this 3 word thing? Is that the directions we paste into our mapping app?

It looks like I won't be able to make it tomorrow. However, I recommend the What 3 Words app for off-road navigation. It uses three square meter blocks for your location rather than street-addressing. You can spit on your destination if you navigate to the what3words block. It has free web, Android, and iOS apps available. Example: entrance vs parking

Agreed, im very familiar with what3 words. Use it for work daily.

In the notes under location there is a what3words location for the meetup.

Also the meetup is the 21st rather than tomorrow.

Thanks for the invite! I'll try and make it - my son's birthday is the day before, and it's a sleepover with an unknown number of 10yos. EEEEK. I'm familiar with What Three Words but never use it and need to reinstall it on my new phone. Maybe at the meet-up you can encourage me to get with the program. Hah. I AM already very familiar with the meeting point, so no problem there. Cheers! -Paige aka @Tacomama

It’s almost here!

Monthly gathering time. Be sure to top off your coffee, it will be chilly for a bit until the sun hits.

I’m hoping to show off my newest overland tool. Assuming the post office cooperates.
