The time has arrived for our trip to Austin. Will anyone be around Austin Sun. the 4th? I will be in Red1's area on Mon & Tue, then back to Austin area. I will contact you Red1, Sun. night or Mon. AM.
Would be happy to see you.

Red1

I'll be around.

We'll have to get together Monday night. I've got a commitment for Tuesday with a customer. (Astros vs Giants baseball game)

Geo

Hey, I have near infinite availability these days (currently freed up for other opportunities).

I can get together when you get together with Brian.

If it's Monday night I could most likely make it as well.

944Willie

Well you guys know the area. We are going to the season opener at 7:00 PM Monday night. GOOOOOO GIANTS!!!! Sorry I had to do that. We can meet where ever you guys want to meet. If there is a place that my wife and daughter can go shopping near by, all the better. Talking cars, yes even Porsche, is not their favorite thing to do. We can be in town at any time.
Cheers

Red1

Well, you'll be downtown. Keith will be there already, and I can be there by 5:15, so we could meet up before your game. I dunno if you had dinner plans, but you won't have loads of time before the 7:05 first pitch. The Hard Rock Cafe is a few blocks from the field, and is just an option.

944Willie

Hard Rock sounds like a good place to me. I'll be there about 4:45 then. I have Red1's # so I will give him a call if I get lost. Is anyone bringing their significant other? I'll try and get us a larger area 6-10? people. There will be 3 of us if the girls stay.

Geo

Let me ask my wife. She often times comes out for such things.

Red1

My wife works downtown now, so I could grab her too.

Are you sure you want to say it that way? Since Joyce and I ride in together, I suppose she'll be there if I am!

Geo

Kerry will indeed be making dinner tomorrow.

And she's jealous you have opening day tickets. She's a big Astros fan. Hehe, and I'm a big Cardinals fan so we try to catch as many Cardinals games as we can. So far it's still a friendly rivalry.

944Willie

Geo, It was great to meet you and Kerry. Sorry Brian and Keith could not make it. The game was great and Tues was just as good, Sorry Kerry. You got back at us tonight, the Rocket did a great job. Again Thanks for coming out to meet us.

Gene,

Yes, the pleasure was ours! We had a great time. I wish we handn't been so late. Stinking Houston traffic.

Hope to see you again, whether during your trip to Austin next year or perhaps us making it up to the Pacific Northwest.

Hope you've had a good time in Houston and enjoy the rest of your trip.

Gene - sorry to have missed you this trip. Our realtor called on Sunday and informed us that a herd of the same were coming over on Tuesday for a look-see. As you can imagine we had to do the "clean sweep" thing on Monday night (Sunday wasn't much better - spent the day repainting the rear door of the house). Someday we'll have all of this behind us and Joyce will allow me to go out and play. But for now I'm AWOL if I even mention putting the charger on the 951, much less skipping out for a brew with the guys.

Red1

I PM'd Gene about my problem Monday, but for Keith and George I'll let you guys know the storage outfit damaged my boat. I discovered it Sunday, and had to work late Monday so I could take Tuesday off to handle the boat people.

I spent all Monday so pissed off I'd have made a poor dinner date anyway.
