OK, I am counting 23 rooms needed if everyone stayed at the hotel.  They have 21 rooms and if we rent all of them will get the place to ourselves plus room rate discount.  There is a large indoor lobby, a big pool like we had at the first bash, and outdoor picnic tables along the banks of the scenic creek.

I got pics from them today and thios looks like a great place.  I am going down there to check it out in a week or so.  The only weekend they have open is Sept 12, 2015.  Sounds like a good date to me.

Will let you know more when I see it.

If you can come, and would stay at that hotel, PLEASE SEND ME AN EMAIL to commit informally to being there for that timeframe.  There are other motels nearby if we have more people than rooms.  Room rate $109 - $119 but will be discounted from that if we fill it up.

Please email ASAP if you think you can go so I have some bargaining power when I go visit on Dec 5.      steve@mustangsteve.com
Let me know if you will stay at the hotel for 1, 2, or 3 nights.

As of now, Dec 5, 16 of the 21 rooms have been claimed.  Don't wait too long!  I will research other hotels close by the main one also.

This will be a great bash !!!!!

Just have a question, is it always going to be in the fall now instead of the summer like it use to be??

September in Texas is still Summer time.

I am in w/ steve also.  Checking with another friend that might be there.  Will call ASAP>

I visited the venue in Wimberley today and I think it will make a good bash location. It is not a brand new hotel but they have a nice covered deck on the river banks with lots of ceiling fans and parking for the Mustangs right near it.
I told them to hold all 21 rooms for us for Thursday through Saturday nights, and I will post the booking info as soon as I get back home.

This bash will be a bit different than the others as we will all be staying at the same place where the bash will be held. I think it will provide a great opportunity for everyone to relax and hang out together. We have swimming pool, swimming hole in the river, fishing, tennis courts and even shuffleboard.
I'm not sure how food will be provided at the bash as caterers are scarce there and no one lives close by that could provide food. We will figure something out.  We have the facility to ourselves until 11:00 pm if wanted.
More info to come later.
Bash date is officially Sept 12, 2015 in Wimberley , TX

I would be in. Seeing I missed last years, another drive down to Texas would be fun.

This is the first time for my wife and I. We are leaving from Cedar Hill, is there a group going together at the same time to caravan?

I didn't realize you were leaving on Thursday. We will be coming on Friday. We plan on bringing our 70 Mustang convertable.

There are probably others that will be driving to Wimberley from Dallas area on Friday instead of the early group's Thursday trip.  I know Ramses is leaving Friday from Dallas.  Maybe you two can connect and caravan down together.  It would be great if you met everyone in Driftwood around lunchtime at the Salt Lick BBQ place.  Or in Wimberley as you choose.  You could probably cruise down I-35E with just a couple of cars to keep herded together.  Traffic would not be too bad in the morning.

Ramses' email is ramses@mustangsteve.com

If coming down Hwy-281 do you have route that will get us there with no bridge closings,and or if doing the I-35 is there a route with no bridge closings. Should be  coming that way  sometime Thursday,might even be able to meet up with the group.

On 281, take 290 east towards Austin then South on 12 to Wimberley.

No bridge issues on any routes from I-35.
Hwy 12 is best route. There is a sign on I-35 stating Wimberley to right.
