Mike W from this sight was kind enough to remind me that this year Austin is hosting ZCON.  I have never been but since this is a mere 3 hour drive as the Z flies, I am darn sure going. I would like to find out who from Houston area is going and maybe we can meet up for some much needed car talk and time away from regular life.  The event is June 20th - 24th.

Lets get those Z's from Texas to represent!

Also, if there is already another thread, I did not see it..

This is going to be so epic... I cannot wait to see all of you and see those beautiful cars I have been eyeing for years!

 

 

It's an awesome sight to go out in the mornings and see a whole hotel parking lot filled with Zs.  I'll never forget my first morning in Memphis.  Guys and gals sipping coffee (Kahlua mixed) and polishing their cars, so quite and peaceful.  It was nice.

That BBQ has me drooling for Texas!  Can't get there.

Janet and I'll be heading out to the County Line restaurant (lake) one evening if anyone is interested.

Vicky and I will not be doing the post-car show buffet Wednesday - she probably won't even go to the show.  Dinner with good friends would be great that evening or another.

Sounds good!  Janet and I are in an air B&B with kitchen so we may cook and entertain

Make it Thursday and maybe we can make it too.

Keep me posted as to any of these plans as well!!

• Of course   I owe you dinner with the family!

IF we are going to tune Webers, I can bring a box of jets.

Hi All,

I just sent a PM requesting emails and phone numbers.  I'll make a list and distribute.  If I missed you just pm me with the details and I'll append and resend the revised list.

Janet and I are looking forward to seeing good friends old and new!

I am going to try to run by the NASA store and get some stickers for all my buds here...

We're in Fredericksburg TX now, 700 miles yesterday and 500 hundred today.

At the Mississippi river yesterday evening...
