We are thinking about coming on and splurging on one more night...........if my parents don't mind taking care of the animals (we have a bunch) an extra day and night. Anyway, my point is........ (and I do have one, BASSMAN!) is that if you are arriving on Wednesday and IF we are there.......we would be able to pick you up at the airport instead of you hiring a taxi or limo or whatever. I will let you know asap if we are getting there on Wednesday or Thursday. If you are arriving Wednesday and flying in...let me know what time and we would try to be there by then. Is this confusing or WHAT? LOL (NO COMMENTS ALLOWED FROM BASSMAN) Can't wait to see you guys! big hugs, karma
Do you have any idea where the toll highway begins in Houston when you are coming from the east? Mapquest gave me 610 and I do ot know about any other route. Think it is also called the North Loop Freeway.
Yep! You need not worry about me, molly! My two tankinis are packed and ready to soak up some sun! I'm bringing my boom box just in case (you never know when we may need some tunes!), so if we do have that pool party, we'll be ready. :)
There is a possibility we will arrive Wednesday. Not sure yet-DH may want to stop overnight (in or near Houston) but I say let's drive on. I have not checked our hotel to see if they have anything available for Wednesday night anyway.
Thanks, Bette for the toll highway info. We are prepared to look for the signs.
Y'all have done a great job! Can't wait to meet everyone!
Should we make a tnet sign and go stand in front of the webcam? Would be too funny! There are 2 Threadgills restaruants in Austin. Not sure if this is the one where we are dining, if it was we could set a time for our buddies that couldn't make it to Austin to see us LIVE.
I still have not found my digital camera. Maybe it is at Helen's mom's house! If I don't find it that is ok, I have old faithful to bring with me. We are planning to leave tomorrow morning, stop for an early lunch or break with Helen, in Baton Rouge, and drive on.
From a friend in Houston, I have directions for getting on the toll highway and specific instructions. Thanks to bette for the link to the map, too. I have all maps printed out and in the car.
Luppy is following every step I take. She knows we are packing and I do not have the heart to tell her she is not going. It will be almost impossible to go out the door without her tomorrow morning.
I know how you feel! I have checked my bag about ten times and feel like I am just forgetting something. Oh well, if I don't have it, I guess I don't need it.
I think we are leaving early tomorrow morning and heading to the airport. We pick bassman up at 1:00. Then I guess to the hotel and see if mrbdawg is there yet. Dinner and then to pick up molly4th at 11:00. I guess this is it guys. Next time I see you it will be in person. wooooooo hooooooooo big hugs, karma

I need to call the hotel...but I know I really should wait and see if hubby is willing to drive on to Austin. I would love to get there tomorrow night. Don't tell, but I have a plan to keep Meep overnight Saturday night!

Can't believe that my original summer plans a year ago had me arriving in Texas today to come and join you all..and here I am stuck across the pond with no travel plans...boohoo!
I KNOW you will all have a blast as chatters come and go over the next few days...remember we need PHOTOS!!!!!! Try to stay out of TOO much trouble without my calming influence there amongst you all to keep you all out of trouble ;-)
Wish I was there...love Skippy!
PS. BIG FAVOUR TIME.....please will someone empty a bucket of ice down the back of bassmans shirt for me...a t-net gathering wouldn't be the same without that happening ;-) LOL
I hope you all have a blast. I'm so jealous. I'd love to be there with you. Maybe next year I'll make it to another gathering. Try not to get into too much trouble. (I don't want to hear about you being arrested, Bassman! Behave yourself. I know what a bad influence Karma can be. Try to keep her out of trouble, too.) (((((((((Big Hugs)))))))
(((((Friends))))): I know you are having a great time and can hear you all laughing now. As you know I was suppose to be there but due to problems I had my surgery on Wed. and came home yesterday morning....I am pain free now!!!! My daughter said last night "mom, we should have asked the doctor if we could fly to Texas"....LOLOL!!!! I had spoken with karma from my hospital bed and also when I got home. She & Molly were on their way to the airport to pick up Number & andwulf. I just hope I get to meet up with you all sometime in the near future. I was sure worried about karma being out with three males on Wed. evening...LOLOL!!! Just wanted to let you all know I am thinking of you and the fun time I am missing. I feel so much better though....Love ya all, KAM
