Re: [Texascavers] [TCR 2017 Success!]
Shout Shout, Here Here! Pete has been bringing his hot tube and sauna to TCR, and several NSS Conventions in Texas , longer than many of the younger attendees have been alive! The cooks and crew also deserve thanks, because they always work hard, even if your taste buds have different opinions from year to year. I didn't make it this year, but it sounds like a good TCR. Best wishes to those who want to take on Don's job. Logan On 10/17/2017 3:38 PM, Denise P via Texascavers wrote: Great TCR, you have ended your reign on a high note, Don!

Re: [Texascavers] [TCR 2017 Success!]
Charlie, Even I ( your imaginary arch-nemesis ) missed you greatly. There were likely some un-noticed records shattered this year. Most registered attendees who had grandchildren Most registered attendees who had great-grandchildren. Oldest active caver in attendance -the one and only Sir Fritz, The Grandmaster Flash of Caving. Best beer ever - Pedernales (PBC ? ) Was this It ? http://res.cloudinary.com/ratebeer/image/upload/w_250,c_limit/beer_178297.jpg Ask Bob Bell. Most beautiful women in attendance.Should have done a group photo of that. Although 1985 was probably just as good. Loudest crying baby at 5 a.m. thanks to me, David Locklear, and my super-duper-squeaky old cot. Most attendees with bad knees. Least number of party-poopers ? M.C. now owns the record for most hot girlfriends brought to TCR at 22, I think. I lost count at 19. She made a fine Viking slave-driver. I heard 36 naked people squeezed in the hot-tub and 25 in the sauna. Carl Kunath for most attendance at major Texas caver gatherings counting pre-TCR and NSS Conventions, etc. at 122, I think. Did I miss a record ? ___ Texascavers mailing list | http://texascavers.com Texascavers@texascavers.com | Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/texascavers@texascavers.com/ http://lists.texascavers.com/listinfo/texascavers

Yes, it was great seeing everybody and our dogs had a really fun time trying to clean up all of the spilled food on the ground. Marley & Bandit gave TCR a big paws up! They were still exhausted this morning, always a good sign of a fun weekend. Thanks to everyone that pitched in to help, sorry I didn’t have time this year to pitch in—there’s always next year.
