I bought a packet of 3 sizes of these work kit bags not long ago from Lowe's. Although not much of a neatness freak this may help organize my life as they look to be very handy. The zippers are industrial but muddy cave ready, not sure. However, as I said they look handy, for travel, anything..Preston - Original Message - From: David via Texascavers mailto:texascavers@texascavers.com To: CaveTex mailto:texascavers@texascavers.com Sent: Saturday, November 22, 2014 8:00 PM Subject: [Texascavers] Gear related This is about a nylon sack to carry stuff in. Lowe's hardware store has a new product that they are calling a cinch bag. It looks like a practical thing to throw in your car for a road trip. It is a rugged nylon sack with a small zipper compartment on the outside to put your headlamp, and 2 open kangaroo pouches, one for a candy bar, and the other for small LED flashlight. There is a small pouch outside with Velcro lid to store a sandwich. On the back is a zippered flat pouch for maps, photos, flat things. Inside is enough room for helmet and gloves, or instead something else like knee pads, or a sweater. Top does not close but has a drawstring, that also serves as the shoulder straps. Ideal use would be for a very short ridgewalking trip. Brand is AWP, and is in the rack with the nylon tool bags. It comes with webbing handles. You could almost call it a purse for cavers. It has a strap for car key-ring, or small carabiner. It could be modified for more rugged uses, but already has a grommet drain hole. It cost $ 19.40 plus tax See AWP HP Cinch Bag #0552604 This product meets the unofficial LSA ( Locklear Seal of Approval ) David Locklear NSS # 27639 _ ___ Texascavers mailing list | http://texascavers.com Texascavers@texascavers.com | Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/texascavers@texascavers.com/ http://lists.texascavers.com/listinfo/texascavers ___ Texascavers mailing list | http://texascavers.com Texascavers@texascavers.com | Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/texascavers@texascavers.com/ http://lists.texascavers.com/listinfo/texascavers

Re: [Texascavers] Luckenbach
Actually according to a calendar I found, it was spring of 1992, May 1-3. It was a great meeting, we had a steak house in Fredricksburg for the papers they served supper and Luckenback threw a dance. It was a great weekend, we tried to set up another spring meeting there but they said their insurance company just told them they could have four major events a year and they were holding those spots for Willy Nelson and/or Waylon Jennings.
