Default Just got back from Texas!

Yeaaah. Went down to meet up with the Texas crew this past Thurs-Sunday.

Had a blast, I just wanted to get on here and thank all you guys. Craig, Zac, the Powells, and everybody else. I appreciate the hospitality, it was definately nice to see something different.

Perfect timing too, as its cold as shittt up here in the north country.

I think it's time to move...

Robbie

Houston.. Mainly the south side, there wasn't much time to head up north, though we wanted to.

Imagine how much better the experience would have been if you weren't hanging out with a bunch of thugs. That was the BAD Houston crew, hope you still have your wallets.

LOL just kidding man.

I told Tyler we were coming down, but we really didn't have enough time to hit up Austin. Plus I heard the weather wasn't too great up that way...

I miss H-town already, it just started snowing here again on my way home from work. I could go for a Whataburger right now as well. Either that, or that pimp *** 24 hour Tex-Mex joint. We have nothing good up here.

I can't thank Zac enough for the bed!

No problem Rob & Tony! I just wish the weather was better and had a few more days to see more ****.

But here are some pics of one night chilling at my house:







I'll check and see if the other guys got any more pics.


Peace,
Craig.

Wowzers Craig! No wonder you were standing there shooting the **** out of us with your camera!

That pic was around 1:00am, I was sooo tired from all the bad *** stuff that Houston Offers.

To bad on the weather I only got to hear Craigs car start "It only comes out in the sun" he says, BAH! Its just not fair.

Got to take a spin in a 10.50 Vette (Matt) and Rode in a TT Porsche (Chris) Cruised around in a sweet cobra too (Zac) and last but not least was Craigs Trailblazer! Yeah Yea!!!

Definatly going back, no ifs, ands, or buts. Top Notch Hospitality from Top Notch Guys!

Tony.
