I think you mean Bastrop.
Yeah, the Bastrop area is OK. I used to have to go out to Camp Swift, courtesy of the TXARNG.![Icon Neutral](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies2/icon_neutral.gif)
There's a pretty decent family style restaurant at or near the corner of 95 and 71, and you can head North on 95 and hit the famous BBQ joints in Elgin.
It's pretty tame out there. Why don't you bring your car and come up a day early? You can attend our meet in Austin Saturday night and get some action.![Secret2](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/secret.gif)
If you are game, PM me for details.

Yeah, I heard the AA school at Campbell that was run by/for the 101st was more professional and less of a haze. I never did Air Assault myself. Went to Jump School at Benning instead. I was an "Alpha" so I got some extra attention from Sergeant Airborne, but it was all in good fun.
I'm not in any unit now. I'm a PFC these days ... Proud Fat Civilian
Not entirely sure how long it would take to get down there from Dallas, but 4.5 hours is in the ball park. Mapquest would give a good estimate.
