ZING!

Posted by katharina (Member # 827) on :

Me, in Dallas. [Smile]

Come in June, and there may be more.

Posted by mr_porteiro_head (Member # 4644) on :

I don't live there anymore.

Posted by pH (Member # 1350) on :

I have two options...I can drive through Dallas, or I can drive through Houston.

Posted by beverly (Member # 6246) on :

Neither do I. But I know lots of people who do.

Posted by Farmgirl (Member # 5567) on :

Well, you know Bob_S lives there.

Traveling to Texas because?????

FG

To visit someone. [Razz]

Posted by Jim-Me (Member # 6426) on :

I am also in Dallas. Thor is, I think, in Houston. Bob Scopatz is roughly equidistant from both in (IIRC) College Station.

Posted by Brian J. Hill (Member # 5346) on :

I'm in Amarillo--at least for the next few months. I don't have regular computer acess for now, so I don't know how much good this reply will do.

Posted by Bob_Scopatz (Member # 1227) on :

I'm closer to Houston, but Dallas isn't a huge distance. If I'm in town at that time, I wouldn't mind hosting a get together, or driving to either Dallas or Houston. Whatever.

So...when?

Posted by Wussy Actor (Member # 5937) on :

I'm in Oklahoma City, but I would be stoked for a Dallas get together. Man. I don't think I've used the word stoked for ten years.

Oh, I totally feel like the snowboarder I am now. I use "stoked" all the time.

You could go THROUGH texas to come to california!

Posted by pH (Member # 1350) on :

*LOL* I would....but that's far. And I'm lazy. [Big Grin]

Hmmm. Dallas. Houston. Dallas. Houston.

Posted by Dobbie (Member # 3881) on :

I live near Dallas, Pennsylvania.

Posted by Telperion the Silver (Member # 6074) on :

And then come to Michigan!
Yes!M!ch!gan!

Posted by Epictetus (Member # 6235) on :

I used to live in Midland, Texas. As far as the road trip goes, I say go for it.

Posted by Jim-Me (Member # 6426) on :

pH, I am just realizing that I probably won't be able to attend any Dallas gathering. If you choose to come up this way and want to meet me, e-mail me and we'll talk. If not, have a great trip and enjoy the get-together.

Posted by Dobbie (Member # 3881) on :

MA?

Posted by pH (Member # 1350) on :

Yes, Paulish. [Razz]

I am well aware.

Although I'm a lurker, I'd love to meet any (and all) of y'all. Depending on when your hypothetical trip is, I might be able to make it - I'll be moving to Austin in early August.

Posted by pH (Member # 1350) on :

If I make it, it'll probably by early July. With two of my crazy friends.

Posted by katharina (Member # 827) on :

pH, come to Dallas! *looks around for the button to push to register vote for Dallas*

Posted by Chaz_King (Member # 3184) on :

Texas rocks, you should either go to Dallas, or San Antonio... not houston =P

I live in Dallas also btw.

So was I the only person who thought, after seeing the author and the title of the post, that this was another "how do I avoid the draft" topics?

Posted by Jalapenoman (Member # 6575) on :

I am probably the newest member of the board and live in El Paso. Amarillo, San Antonio, Austin, the lower Rio Grande Valley, and Corpus Christi are great places. Avoid Houston, Laredo, Lubbock, and El Paso. Midland/Odessa/Abilene/San Angelo is boring. I was raised in El Paso and served my mission in San Antonio, so the only time I had to leave Zion was the time I served in Provo in the MTC!

Posted by pH (Member # 1350) on :

Well, I have a friend who's at Ft. Hood, and apparently the easiest way to get there is through Dallas? The route looks all windy and out-of-the way, but that's what Yahoo! maps says...

Posted by katharina (Member # 827) on :

I don't know where Fort Hood is, but Dallas will sure be fun. [Smile]

Posted by pH (Member # 1350) on :

It looks like the middle of nowhere to me...

Posted by Jim-Me (Member # 6426) on :

it *is* in the middle of nowhere... but dallas isn't far from there...

Posted by dkw (Member # 3264) on :

So, hypothetically, if *I* were to take an ill-advised road trip to Texas....

Ah, nevermind. I know exactly where I’d go.
