Cars and Coffee
Attention all Houston riders. I will be attending the monthly Cars and Coffee car show this Saturday. During the Spring/Summer months, and every first Saturday of the month, classic and excotic cars gather to show off their rides. Come early as they will have over 350+ cars there. I usually get there around 9am and stay untill noon before it gets too hot.
Its located off 290 and Louetta in the shopping mall lot ajacent to the HEB. Hope to see you there.

Joe and Joe...Niftee Fifties and C&C are pretty close to one another. They are BOTH off of 249. Niftee Fifties is 249 exit Spring Cypress and C&C is 249 exit Louetta. See map below. I might be able to make it, in BOTH cars 
A = Niftee Fifties
B = Vintage Park (C&C)
C = Rudy's Barbeque for afterwards

What time do we need to get there? I have seen 6am on their facebook page...is it a problem or too crowded to park in the show if we get there right at 8am?
Steve
P.S. If we all go, there will be 4 Joes driving Cutlasses as both of you are Joe and my Dad is Joe, and technically my first name is Joe...oh brother, I'm glad they called me Stephen from a young age lol!

Rudy's......So a couple of weeks ago I took my kid's stuff to him at Ft. Hood. He tells me we are going to the gas station for some BBQ......A plate and drink cost me just shy of $120.00. Worth every penny. I may have filled the truck up too, don't remember, wouldnt matter. Whats the chance of getting one of you guys to FEDX me a samich?

Gas definitely makes it an expensive trip but the food isn't too high by itself
I don't think I've ever gone there for gas...to me it's a restaurant lol!

Dude! It's some good stuff isn't it? I'm telling you, every time I have met Joe at Rudy's it seems we both go home and take a nap. I can't help but pig out when I go there.

Chief, you are truly an officer and a gentleman. Anyone who serves this fine country, drives Olds, and knows good BBQ..........It would be an honor to buy you a brisket......
Joe, you best get on down to Rudy's and smear some sauce on your face. The Chief is right, getting fuel aint the reason you go there.

Fella's, I don't think I'm going to make it. I have to get this convertible finished so my dad can return to Austin in it. We are half a day away from breaking it in...which should happen tomorrow morning. Doesn't give me time to make C&C.
BUT! I would consider Rudy's for a late lunch if you guys wanted to meet at the Spring location off of 45 or the one off of 290
