If you haven't heard yet, I'm putting together the 4th Annual Lake Amistad Mexico Trip. Here are some of the details:
In past years we’ve had from 24 up to 65 people attend. It all really depends
on how many boats are going. If we’re light on boats this year, we’re
considering also a House Boat to rent, and people could double that as they’re
sleeping quarters possibly as well.
I’m looking at the weekend of August 16-19th. We stay in some of Ruthie’s famous
trailers located just 2 blocks from the boat ramp: http://www.ruthieatlakeamistad.com
Ruthie loves us and always accommodates to our crazy parties. We usually go to Ciudad Acuna (2)
nights out of the (3), and party on the lake all day every day. In the past,
we’ve had groups caravan from Austin and San Antonio, leaving both on Thursday and Friday,
so we’ll work with you on getting down there (4 hours from Austin, 3.5 from
SA).
The costs are typically $75 per person for housing and gas. This could be higher if some of you want to rent a
house boat, and we could work out for everyone to chip in on gas and expenses
somewhat on the house boat. Other than that, we usually BBQ (Ernie’s Fajitas),
and eat crap food during the day on the lake…we have dinner in Mexico at Ma
Crosby’s or Las Palapas, and then what you drink during the day and at night.
At night, we take over the Corona Club in Acuna…they usually have live music and
an outside dance floor.
Anyways, this is the very, very
preliminary head count to get an idea of a good weekend for everyone as well
interest in a house boat, and to find others that will take their own boat to
the lake. I have a 22 ft Tige which is good for 10
people. If you are interested in joining this trip, please send me an email so I can add you to my list.
