1/8,1/15, 1/28 and 1/29 are good dates for me.

Something in Midtown would be good, just a few choices nearby:
Front Porch Pub
Little Woodrows
Pub Fiction
El Patio
(many many more!)

Ok. Lets do it! I think Jan 8th is too soon, not enough time to plan and get the word out. I am working on the 15th, and going on the SD trip to Saba on from Jan 29th thru Feb 5th. I can do third week of February Feb 15 thru 19th.

The only place I've been to on your list is Little Woodrows, and if I remember, they don't have much parking.

Pub Fiction looks like it has plenty of room based on the pics on their web site.

(I replied earlier but my post disappeared so I will try again)

I am free this friday the 14th. Are you? Would that be too soon? I could also possibly do Jan 20 or Jan 21. I have ERO duty that weekend but call outs are extremely unlikely.

Front Porch Pub and Komodo Pub have plenty of street parking free after 6pm. There is also plenty of parking on my street which is walking distance to those two as well as several others

Please contact me ASAP so we can get this going! :D

Hey Teresa love your enthusiasm! And hopefully you can get a group together for Jan AND Feb. Since Sandy can't do anything until Feb and hopefully Sonny can drive by then, lets for sure set one up for Feb. That will give us lots of time to get the word out on fb, other sites and do a blast of our own members.

The sooner we lock in Feb and start promoting the sooner I can get it into a new promotions program that will give it wider exposure. :thankyou:

And of course if I were still in TX I'd do it with you in January! ;)

Okay, the blast is out! 140 or so members (with only eight bad address bounces so far) :banghead: Here is the text of the invitation:

Teresa aka Mermaid Lady says:

It's been too long since we've had a Houston Area Happy hour! Let's get together for Margaritas and good times!

Date: Friday Feb 18, 7:00PM

El Patio Mexican Midtown
2416 Brazos
Houston, TX 77006

Map:
http://maps.google.c... 77006&t=h&z=14

El Patio is centrally located in Houston Midtown.

There is limited "crash space" available within walking distance of the restaurant for out of towners (or those who may have had one too many!). First come first served!

Please do NOT reply to this email; instead, simply click the link below to the Houston HH topic at www.singledivers.com to post your reservation! (Needed to help restaurant management with seating.)
