Am I allowed to change the restaurant??

My DD will be coming with me to Houston and we will be at Galleria on Tuesday afternoon.

I would like to request that we meet at Kenny' and Ziggys Deli at 2327 Post Oak Rd for dinner at 6:30 pm. Would that be ok with you?

I thought about it and I can get greek in ABQ and at home, but I can't get NY deli anywhere here.

Let me know, moldy, rkkwan and dfr.

Thanks!
Debi

Beside taking a taxi; is there any other way to get from Rotary House to Galleria without taking hours of time?

Thanks - Debi

Oh, I usually get off around 5, but on the coming Tuesday I may have experiments that can run long. But hopefully, I can get out by 5:45 or so. If you're just going from the Rotary House to Galleria straight at that time, I can drive you.

But if you're planning to get there earlier, then taxi is probably your best choice. Unless you want to try the local buses.

Actually, the bus doesn't take THAT long. From the TMC Transit center, bus #73 runs about every half an hour and takes 35 minutes to get to the Galleria:

You can use the covered elevated walkway all the way from the Rotary House to the TMC Transit center without having to cross any street.

Sorry, you do have to hit the ground and cross a parking lot with no cover. But no major roadway crossing. It's about 0.4mi total distance.

Are there any new faces coming along or is it a mini-version of the group that met in the Spring? Do we need any sort of signage to find "new" people?

As far as I can tell Moldy, its just your, rkkwan, me and my daughter. Don may or may not make it. Don't think signage is needed.

Anyone else joining us??

Ray - you've got mail.

Tomorrow night - deli rocks!
