Have there been any diesel owner meets in the Houston area before? I saw the ones in Austin, and Dallas, but never ones in the Houston area. I'm not the planning type, but I think I diesel owner meet would be nice. Maybe at a park like Tom Bass park, Hermann park, Memorial park, or Adair park,(all nice parks, esp. Memorial and Tom Bass and Adair) with a picnic, and a nice leisurely group drive to Galveston and back after the meet at the park. Like I said, I'm not one for planning events, but this is just an idea. What do my fellow Houstonians think?

Count me in. Tom Bass is is the closest to me. I'm in Clear Lake.

I would be very interested as well! mid July, mid to late August or into Sept would work.

I'm sure there's a nice park in Galveston that would work. We could do a group cruise southwestward along Galveston island.

Another possibility, although it's in the other direction, is Huntsville State Park. Plenty of picknic areas, I think there's also a covered area for groups and there are plenty of great country roads in Montgomery county with several small towns with rest or pull off areas, great area for a group cruise.
