Change in plans for Thursday dinner in Wimberley

The owner of the Cypress Creek Cafe emailed today and said she was no longer offering us a seating area or her patio or her parking lot for our Thursday night gathering. That kind of leaves us in a bad place but I sure as heck am not going to be tossing any money her way ever again.  She also tried to jack the price of the bash catering by over $800 so she will not be doing the catering for Saturday either.  Looks like we will be going to Sonic or somewhere else Thursday night, unless somebody has a better idea.  There are not alot of big restaurants in Wimberley, so we may have to split up and spread out if we want a sit-down meal.

So, the catering for the bash is now up in the air.  I will be calling everyplace I have not already called, but time is getting short to try and hire a caterer in a town where they all stay pretty busy.  Worst case, I will be cooking burgers myself, which I think would be the best way to get to be sure I meet everybody anyway.  Got to say hi to MS or no food!   Will see how this all plays out.  As far as food goes, Wimberley is not turning out to be MUSTANG BASH FAVORABLE.  But, seeing fellow Mustangers will be fun no matter what.

Am open to ideas from anyone, but my next effort is to see if a BBQ place will cater.  If all else fails, I will don the "WHAT ME WORRY?" apron and get after it myself!
We have a reservation for all of us at Milagros Mexican Restaurant on Friday evening, so that part is covered.

Ouch!  So much for the trip down early and planning.  I was looking forward to seeing how everyone would drive around that deep pit in her parking lot.

Bummer, Dude. That is a big monkey wrench in the plans but nothing to stop the bash. We can always have a balona sandwich and Moon pie lunch. Whatever, we be coming.
 


There is no "I" in team but there are 5 in individual brilliance.

Look into local Lions Club or churches in the area. Up here they are always doing barbecues.

Did she offer a reason?  Its funny because on their web site it says "Let us host your event" "you will not find a better place at a better price for your event"  
That's pretty poor business practices where the event is a week away!

REVISED PLANS

REMEMBER , there are lots of little places to go, but very few that can handle a group.

Thursday night.  Brewster's Brick Fired Oven Pizza and microbrewery.  6:30 PM

Friday lunch.   Salt Lick BBQ (part of the hill country tour)  OR you can eat in Gruene when there about an hour later.  BRING CASH.  They do not take credit cards or checks.

Friday night.       Milagro's Mexican food.  They have parking lot where cars can be displayed.  Large dining room reserved for us.  Might not all sit at same table, but that is OK.

Saturday Lunch at the BASH.  Miss Mae's BBQ (figured Tubo would like this one) we will have brisket, sausage, fixins, sides and apple and peach cobblers.

OK, done deal.

Man, you do know how to "git 'er dun", MS.  Sounds great. But then, a PB&J sammich in the park with all the Bashers would sound great to me.

Friday dinner around 6:30 at Milagro's    Most of the places in Wimberley close early, like 9:00 pm.  I think they roll up the sidewalks at 9 for most places there.  Some of the places have live music and stay open later. but they are too small for our group.  And one certain restaurant that does have live music and a nice patio will not be getting once cent of my money.

We'll be there as soon as we can and boycott them with you. 😤

MS thanks for all the coordinating and scheduling.
