Since you all were so helpful when it came to my trip to San Francisco, I thought I might reach out for help again.

I will be in San Antonio, 12/30 - 12/3. If anyone can tell me some good sights to see or places to check out,(besides the Alamo, uggh), please let me know. I'm gonna be a loner this time so places that are easy to get to and from would be great!

I know all you TEXAS people, SteveRH, Klint, HumbleAG, and a few other of you in TX...won't let me down!!!

Thanks!!!

The company I work for is in San Antonio.
I spend quite a bit of time there.
You can't go wrong with the River Walk. It's got places to shop, eat, relax, etc...
Plus, it's in walking distance of the Alamo.
Hell, I may be down there sometime around then too...

HummerNewbie 11-14-2005 01:22 PM

Damn, you are becoming a real jet setter aren't you

I has been many years since I was in San Antonio but Seth is right, the Riverwalk would be a good place to go.

HIHUMMER 11-14-2005 01:24 PM

Very cool. Thanks SFox. I'm not sure if I'll be leaving on the 3rd or leaving on the 4th. I'm shooting for the 4th b/c with the conference I won't be able to do much those first 2 days. I'll keep my eyes peeled for the announcment. Keep me posted! Thanks again!

Let me know if you are!

Oh yeah...
Speaking of Austin, we're playing Austin on Dec 4th - 40 minutes drive North from San Antonio...
We're playing with a band called Madlife, who get a ton of play on Squizz (XM)...

jfox 11-14-2005 01:29 PM

Come on down, even if you aren't able to make the event we can still get together.

HIHUMMER 11-14-2005 01:38 PM

I'm flying in and staying at The St. Anthony (funny..the saint of the lost!!)

I would love to attend the event considering I've never been to one. Let me know if you know of anybody that would be willing to have a "buddy" ride along.

Hihummer, if you ever come down to Laredo, let me know. Laredo is only 2 1/2 hours from San Antone; it's next door to Mexico.

Seriously, most of our trucks only have one person in them and I'm sure finding you a ride will not be hard at all(most people like having a passenger along).

Hey H1, I'm also in SA, let me know if you want to babysit a 5 mo old, will make your stay here feel a lot longer than it actually is.

It would just make me feel like I was at home with my 5 month old!!
are you going to the event?

devilsfan 11-18-2005 05:50 PM

Probably not. I'm off the all-day off-road circuit until we're done with this whole breastfeeding deal. Otherwise makes for a very uncomfortable day. Hopefully early next year I'll be back on the courses.

Might be able to make the dinner if it's in a kid-friendly spot.

Stacy

HIHUMMER 11-18-2005 06:05 PM

Yeah...feedings can put a damper on your day. Been there, done that, not doing it again.

Dinner..if it's not then maybe we could meet up another night?

Howdy HI! I guess that is supposed to be 11/30 - 12/3? I just stumbled into this thread, better late than never I guess.

I'm going to be in SA on Dec 3, small world, eh? My company Christmas party is that night at the Hyatt Hill Country. Cool place to go (summer is better) when your kid(s) get older, they have a lot of activities.

We'll be in the minivan, ours travel better in it than the H3 (and my wife still doesn't care for the H3). She's ridden in it twice, never driven it.

But, I'm rambling. There are some cool things to do in SA, mostly around the riverwalk. They have a Hard Rock, a Coyote Ugly, and lots of other places. If it isn't too cold, you can just hang out at one of the patio restaurants and watch people stumble by.

Austin is a bit more lively, but a lot of the students will be in Houston that weekend for the Big12 championship game.

You'll need to plan a trip back sometime when the weather is warm, then you can do Sea World, Fiesta Texas, and float down the Guadalupe river in a tube (alcohol recommended).

Have fun!

Alright, Seth told me about this thread going on...Don't get on this site much anymore...trying the ween myself slowly off the site. Working on selling my '03 H2(Not trying real hard!).
Anyway...
I'd be glad to help take a group of us to the hotspots around town. Wed. night is Midnight Rodeo or Cowboys dance hall! Thursday nights is Club Rive(Downtown)$1 anything in the house 5 dancefloors 5 different types of music, or Stonewerks for something a little less busy. Friday night Revolution room or The Re-Bar or Broadway bar or ...?
Saturday night is pretty much open for anyplace in town.

Still not sure if I'll be bringing the H2 the Jeep or the Dodge beast, but you're more than welcome to ride along.

SteveRH 11-20-2005 03:25 AM

HIHUMMER 11-20-2005 09:40 PM

YA'LL FREAKIN ROCK! Thanks so much for all the info. and keep it coming.

I would really LOVE to go to the event and out on the town. Anyone going willing to pick me up at the hotel?? I'm gonna have to go everywhere else I imagine by taxi since the company is not hooking me up with a car?!?
