    Forget the San Jac monument. Just got to Kemah for some seafood and walk the boardwalk.

    Weekend go to Galveston for Mardi Gras or take in a UH Cougar basketball game Sat. They are having $1 dogs night. Save $$.

    Nah. My house is going to be a combination of Marfreless and Treasure's Champagne Room all weekend long. But thanks for the suggestion!

    The Square Falls by Williams Tower is always nice.

    Rainbow Lodge for dinner would be a good suggestion.

    I wouldn't bother with the SanJac Monument. Always seems to be a yawner to out of towners.

    I am so ashamed that I even knew where he was going with that! I'm glad I wasn't the only one!

    I took my son to the zoo a couple of weeks ago. I find it to be a dump and very depressing for the most part.

    I visit Houston 4-5 times a year. I always go to Pappasitios, Luling City BBQ, Rajin Cajun, Lupe Tortillas and Otto's Burgers. These are great food places and fun.

    How does Ninfas on Navigation compare to Lupes or Pappasitos?
