Time to head on down the road
Minor delay as a lady lost control of her car and hit guard rails on both sides of the road - how she missed our group of Vettes the good Lord only knows why.  Our members helped the driver until the ambulance arrived and others directed traffic.  

 


Arrival at the Red River Army Depot
We finally arrived at the RRAD and got checked in at the gate 
   
       
Gary led us on thru the working part of the base out to our destination of Elliott lake   
       
  Short Beer Run timeframe   
       
we passed military vehicles in various stages of repair 
       
       
       
Elliott lake and the cabins were about six miles further into the base 
       
We arrived at the office where we checked in and registered for the cabins   
       
     
some of the cabins were across a feeder for the lake with a walkway across.
Before heading to the cabin we drove across the dam to look across the lake at the cabin area (right)
       
The cabins were very nice, some like this one was fairly new 
       
       
       
from this cabin we could look across the feeder part of the lake where the other cabins were located
     
  This was one of the larger cabins; a 2-story, 3 bedroom unit   
       
  ...and what goes on at RRAD stays at RRAD, until you post it on Facebook ;)     
       

Dinner at Smokey Joe's Barbeque in Nash, TX
Gwynne and Gary had dinner lined up at Smokey Joe's for Saturday evening, including a private dinning room 
       

Fellowship and Fun Around the Campfire
  That evening Gary built a great fire for everyone to gather around   
     
       
  The lake was glassy smooth tonight, not a ripple one   
       
    and the sky was clear with ...wait, what are those - stars???  ...something we don't see very often in the city 
       

Sunday Morning
Sunday morning was another nice day, the air was cool and crisp - perfect for coffee  and a stroll
       
       
       
       
       
       
       
       
     
       
Lots of wildlife to watch, making the stroll more enjoyable   
       
       
       
Looking across at the Hanna's cabin, we could see several gathering for the continental breakfast 
       
  There were a few tepees at the campgrounds
