Beach Trip

I'm game for leaving early (dont know what truck or jeep ill have) and crux



fuck you

I have a buddy and his wife coming with us on the trip and I told my friend that they can’t bring his truck, that they have to bring his wife’s Jeep Cherokee....

you can take your truck, but you have to atleast pull your jeep behind it........

I might take my truck instead of the Jeep. Would you still let me join you guy's on this Jeep excursion.

No trucks allowed

You take your truck and I'm encouraging MudHound to roll it in the surf!!!

Rocio and I are driving to Matagorda early Friday morning. I want to be on the beach around lunch time. I don't want to take a day off and waste it on sitting at home in the morning.

Anybody else want to leave early is welcome to caravan up with us.

I'm in. There was talk about leaving around noon but I would rather leave early and have more time there.

Bah! You'll take your Jeep, and you'll love every minute of it!

I'm game, assuming I can get the day off (which is likely).

I am about 98% sure I will make this

Check it out on Facebook.

24th to the 26th.

Ok, I've been out of touch for a while so forgive me...what is the date of this trip?

we were planning on getting a beach house but have not found one big enough for the group we have so we are still looking....

Of course! And that solves the whole toilet question, too...

OK, and with that out there in front of god and everybody, I've now put myself down to go and that I will be camping, though this is by no means locked in stone. I may still cave in the face of showers and A/C. A friend of mine may come along, depending on if his wife's already got the weekend claimed, leaving him with the kids. I don't know whether I'll actually be there Friday morning, depending on whether I can get the day off work, but we'll see see.

Dont see a pool at the fishermans motel. there is an RV park there if anyone needs it.

Shower??? we will be next to the beach.

I am still on the fence if I am going or not. If I do I don't know if I should camp on the beach or bring a pop-up trailer. I was wondering where about are we going to be. I found a RV site that is at the end of FM2031.

pretty much everyone is spread out

That was the same thing we had last year. We partied with everybody at the pool until the early hours. There will be a place where we'll all hang out and get fed and drunk (not sure what order)
Hopefully somewhere with a pool, that'll be as close of a shower the campers will get

Are there any fees or non-nasty facilities available to beach campers?

This is a pretty important question for me. Does anyone know the answer? I'd like to know whether camping means going without toilets and showers

Zee Germans! That tears it! I'm going.

This is probably a dumb question, but as a newbie here, I'd appreciate someone letting me in on what exactly this weekend is all about. Is it an early morning fishing trip followed by driving up and down the dunes all day and then drinking beer at night until you can't feel feelings anymore? Or a hardcore wheeling trip that ends up on the beach at night? Or just a chance to sun yourself on a beach towel in the company of other people who drove a Jeep there? Or some other possibility?

I honestly have no idea.

It is mostly hanging out at the beach, drinking beer, swimming, fishing and driving your rig until you get stuck.
Rescueing other dumb ass vehicles that have no business being on the beach.
Last year we had to rescue two Germans in a rental car at about the 25 mile mark on PINS.
