Hola, I'm traveling to La Gruta del Palmito near Bustamante on Saturday for my first trip ever driving accross the border and I just found a problem with my title and I wanted to see if anyone has experience with this. I have an Original Title in my name as owner, there is one lien holder and the lien holder realeased the lien in 2002 by signing the release of lien and dating it on the face of the title where it says release of lien. There isn't space or requirement for a notary so it's just the banks signature and date in the release of lien area. I do not have time to get a new title form the state of texas without the leineholder on it, nor to get anything notorized from the bank (which I don't think even exists anymore) before Saturday. I planned on traveling through the Columbia crossing. Is it likely I can actually make it through or am I wasting my time trying?

Though Geary kindly listed the names of people who are going, I don't know where many of you live so I am asking if anyone can provide me a ride from (and back to) Austin. I am pretty flexible on leaving time. I live on West 6th St near Mopac. Anyone who wants someone to help pay for fuel, contact me off the list. Thanks, Ed At 09:42 PM 8/30/2005, you wrote: Folks, This coming weekend is the Labor Day weekend and is an excellent opportunity to visit the newest acquisition of the Texas Cave Management Association ? The Deep and Punkin Nature Preserve. We are having a work trip/trip leader training trip starting on Friday, September 2 through Monday, September 5. We have had a number of folks sign up for the weekend but still have openings. If you?re interesting in seeing the property as well as Deep Cave, this would be an ideal weekend. You may also visit Punkin Cave for the bat flight but entrance to the cave will likely be restricted until sometime in November after the bats have left. We will be performing work around the property as well as arranging caving trips. Main requirements this weekend is to have fun, work a little, and enjoy the weekend. You?re welcome to stay one or more nights. Also, the property is close to Devils River State National Area, Del Rio, and Seminole Canyon, and Lake Amistad National Recreation Area. We will conduct trip leader training trips as well site seeing trips into Deep Cave. If there is interest, we can also lead some photography trips into the cave. We will do some general work on the property including cutting of brush, hauling stuff and some painting. If you have room for tools, we can us loppers, shovels, 5-gallon plastic buckets to haul rock, garden rakes, chain saws and bow saws, etc. Please bring all of the food and water that you think you will need for the weekend. There is a small stove and refrigerator at the site but you may want to bring a portable stove as 20+ people trying to cook on one stove top may be a bit much. Also, please bring chairs, tents, and sleeping pads. We will try and cook some more Dutch Oven desserts around the fire in the evenings. For everyone coming up. Also, there is a grill but you may need to bring charcoal. Please do not bring any wood to the site. The NRCS representative recommended against bringing any wood or plants onto the site to minimize the spread of fire ants and oak wilt. Bunk space. I am asking that two or three bunk spaces be reserved on the bottom bunks for foks that either need breathing machines or joint pains. Let me know if you have any special needs and we'll try to make accomidations. If you're driving, remember to watch the speed limit on 377. Dogs and children are welcome as long as they are well behaved. We have a nice group of folks going this weekend and I think everyone will have a great time. If you have any questions about this weekend, please feel free to contact me at home at 210-479-2151 or work at 210-222-2204. If you reply to this email, make sure that you leave Deep and Punkin in the heading or you may get spam blocked. Let me know if you need directions. Also, don't forget your cave gear. I'll be arriving some time before 9 pm. If you are there early, make yourself at home. Thanks and hope you can make it.
