Kirk, the hotel you mentioned in Galveston is it the Flagship, the hotel that's out over the water? Does the bar near there have lots of parking? I think a place near the water would be excellent! Whoever is up to picking a place and a time I am there, but Sundays are best for me. If it's on a saturday I couldn't make it till after about 3pm or so. Let's do this!

Yes, its the Flagship. There's lots of parking on the sea wall. I'll be out there this week, I'll get the name of the bar.

The name of the bar/resturant is "Fishtails". Its easy to find, you take 45 until it dead ends on the gulf, hang a right and look for the big Flagship hotel. Its across the street. You can either park your car on Seawall Blvd to show it off to all the hot chicks roller blading by, or there is a lot in the back you can hide your old beater in. Resturant downstairs, lounge upstairs has an open porch to the gulf. The Vette club meets there pretty regular - they park their vettes in a long row down the blvd, pretty impressive sight. If you all want to do this thing we only got about 3 weeks of beach weather left. Anyone want to nominate a date and time?

We can decide where we want to meet for the Houston meet by using a poll. I'll start a new post about it.

I can't do it this Saturday, but the following would be great! Some central Houston point would be all right.

November 20th is good for me too, but i won't get out of the office till about noon or 1pm. You know, if yall were willing to travel to the Bush Airport area we could have it here, we've got a big parking lot, restrooms, and we could bring drinks and stuff.

Oh no! Nov 20 may not work out for me! That is looking like a pretty busy day for me as of now. I'll have to see though. We need to find out what another date to set could be, in case Nov 20 gets rained out or something. Somebody asked about a good park, heh, you know what park I'm going to suggest now don't ya? (cough)Tombasspark (cough) :p Maybe the meet could be at a MB dealership or something? If that could be so, Star Motors would be a good meeting place.

What about the Saturday after Thanksgiving? At Tom Bass park? It's too late to plan for the 20th now since the 19 is tomorrow, but let's just get a show of hands, who can be at Tom Bass park on the afternoon of November 27th?

I can be there, who else?
