It's a while off. I know the food court is on teh second floor and there is a Starbucks coffee. We will see. I will email my cell phone before then too.

I think we will be dry camped with the RV in the parking lot. Haven't checked that out yet. (Our RV is only 24 feet but comfy!) We will have my MIL with us and we wanted to be able to have a spot for her to come and go from as she tires easily!! With the portable dish my hubby can watch football!!!

My daughter is in Austin so our trips to Texas are many and my hubby loves to drive. See ya all there.

YOu are so close to there already. Good for you. Nana2. GR8GR8 lives in spring too. Do you know her?

Sorry, I don't know her. Last year we did not go because none of the Park and Rides were not available and knowing Houston, I did not want to try to find parking. I have not checked if these will be available this year. I love riding right to the door and then just getting back on right at the door. Don't have to be concerned about work traffic, etc AND there is a lot of visiting about various quilts, etc. amoung riders on the ride home.

Hi, my wife Laura and I will be going to Houston to work in our QuiltAlbum booth at the show. We will be camping in our new 27' trailer nearby. Stop by our booth and introduce yourself as a QB member, and if you like our software program we will have a special QB price.
