I can't participate cause I still work full time and can't get to enough of them on just Saturday. But sounds like fun!

Thanks for the info! Don't know if I'll be able to do it or not. Will have to see. I've never done a shop hop, but from what I hear they're lots of fun.

too far down the coast for me

I've never done one either. That's alot of driving! :)

Sounds like a fun trip. This is part of my favorite coastline. Thanks for the info.

I'm going to try to do this one this year...I live in Palacios, about 45 min from where this starts in El Campo. But going all the way to Corpus does make it a trip instead of a hop! The shops in Victoria and Port Lavaca are my usual haunts...haven't made it to the new one in EC yet.

you can do them in any order - whatever is most practical. I've only done one - there were door prizes and a little complimentary gift at each one. THere was a project that you could a piece of at each shop. THe one I did was only 3 shops - Missouri City, Victoria, and El Campo.

Thanks for the info, I heard about the smaller hop last year. I've been to most of the shops except El Campo & Pt. Lavaca. Will have to check them out!

wish I could go but wronge way on the coast.
I wish i could of went to the houston show this year.
I will next year. thanks for tte info.
