If we want to combine dinner and indoor games, we can go to D&B. Or we can go to Galveston and have dinner by the ocean. Let's do something that we can all drive our VXs.

Ok. As an "up to the moment" agenda---I don't have one if the weather sets in like they claim. As it stands now they are calling for 70% chance of thunderstorms with up to 1 to 5 inches. I'm still pondering though.
Those folks that are in need of installs the "new & improved" garage here is ready and I figured we can wheel them inside one at a time for the work. I'm hoping someone has a dvd of the Moab runs while the work is going on. It's kinda hard to plan a long event trip as I'm not sure how many people are in need of work or the time it'll take. The cement pond is ready if the sun agrees.
If there is no rain in the evening there are Pro Am stock drag races near Intercontential airport, quarter horses at the track (it can rain on this one too), D&B for dinner, or Galveston, Kemah, or Westheimer run (if the sun is out). The "after the race concert series" at the horse track stars those world renown bands- Finger Eleven, Sick Puppies, & Strata.....I'm dying here.
I'll also entertain suggestions fom the locals as the time & weather progress. As is always the case I'll start looking for local folks around noon and the Austin group whenever they arrive (early or late).
Julian- nothing as cool as the body works this time. The have a huge live frogs of the world (yes- frogs) show at the exhibit hall now... http://www.hmns.org/exhibits/special_exhibits/frogs.asp

Enjoyed the company as always. As a recap for those who did not attend there were a total of 7 here which, considering the weather forcast, was an achievement. The heat put a damper on mod/repair plans but we were able to finish a minor project in getting the magnetic bra on my ride. I must say it looks good but took a little more stretching/pulling/tapping (I know Julian-it was the wrong hammer!!) than I expected. Kemah run for dinner.
Will see the Austin crowd on the 25th of August at Town Lake as my eldest son attempts to bring home the Red Bull Flugtag Championship.

Hey Gary thanks again for hosting the meet it was very enjoyable. Your wife put out a great spread and enough to feed an army. Hope you are not eating leftovers for the next week or so.

Great time as always George - thanks for hosting it yet again! I forgot to give ya the 'bat' gift so remind me @ Flugtag. Tell me the name of your son's entry so we can arrange our schedule to accomodate. We have been invited to the Houston unveiling and driving experience for the new MB C-Class but can choose which day we want to drive. And I'll make sure to have the HIDs when you are down....

It's the The Chupacabra Iditarod Sled but I don't know the "flight time" on Saturday yet. I'll keep you posted.
