Somehow I think having them 'fresh' will have more to do with 12 oz curls than the Dallas traffic. I see that you haven't been out with our friends from Houston before... Aren't you going to be surprised

I'm good with just about anyplace. I just have never been up yonder in the north lands

I'm in once I find out where and when.

Since we seem to have people from all over the metroplex I might suggest Plano or Frisco as I think it will be easier for everyone to get to. Scott, that's your neck of the woods so any suggestions? Is the Plano Tavern still around, they have 32 degree beer on tap and pretty good hamburgers if my memory serves me correct. It's also pretty easy to get to for everyone.

Just putting out some more thoughts of "central" locations:

Spaghetti Warehouse on I35E - Dallas

Trail Dust Steak House of I35E - Dallas

The Flying Pig on Main Street in old town Lewisville (right off I35E)

Basically, it sounds like something along the I35E corridor would be a better location for those wanting to come from South Dallas, Fort Worth, McKinney, etc.

Just my .02 cents.

I was thinking midway between McKinney and Fort Worth and South Dallas for all that want to come. Does the GTG have to be in or near to McKinney? It dosen't matter to me I'll get there no matter what.
