Here's a slightly more detailed map of where the shop is at, not that there is really that much detail to be found.

You actually want to turn up Talcott and take the first left into the corner lot. The shop is among a group of buildings at the back. Don't forget it's a gravel lot you have to travel through to get to the shop area, so think twice about driving a really really nice 951 there (although I do drive the Bimmer there all the time).

The address is officially:

16190 Beaumont Highway
Houston, TX 77049

Oh, and I should have my digital camera on Saturday.

What time is the wrenching starting Sunday? Matt and I may have time to hit the water for an hour or two Sunday morning if the rest of you are going to be sleeping in. The boat ramp is only ten minutes from my door.

Guys, I'm afraid something has come up and Sunday is a no go. My apologizes. To be honest, I'm not sure about Saturday for me either.

Do what ya gotta do, perhaps by then then things will change.

Looks like the boat is gonna get a good workout then. Since we'll have more time, maybe we'll go into the Gulf instead of staying in the bay.

Dang Geo - that's a bummer.
Let's see. We started with burgers cause we didn't know how many were coming to the BBQ. Then I figured we could likely upgrade to brisket on the new grill I just bought. Now Geo and Kerry might be a no show - heck, maybe time to take the T-Bones out of the fridge.

Just kidding - Menu is going to be brisket, baked beans, potato salad, cole slaw, corn on the cob, and corn bread. Desert - might try some home made ice cream (if I can find the freezer - Blue Bell if I can't) and a cobler or two.

In the unfortunate event that we can't get to Geo's new shop on Sunday.

The offer is still open for anyone who wants come up to the lake (Livingston) on Sunday.

It's about an hour north of the big airport. Nice drive once you're off 59. LSR PCA had one of their fun runs on this exact route last year..

We can talk about it more on Sat at Keiths.
