Hello Andrew , welcome from Oklahoma. Born and raised Texan, but got lost somewhere along the way I guess.
You are in the Southwest Region. Check out the
Southwest Region sub-forum for local information and involvement opportunities.
Here is the link to the forum calendar and Meet-Up event page:
Overland Bound Meetups. There is a fairly regular meet up in Round Rock. I know it's not real close, but in Texas close is a relative word.
Or to check out what other members are planning go here:
Overland Trip Planning
I am the SW Region Member Rep so if you have any questions let me know.
If you are on Facebook feel free to join us there as well,
