Houston

A few weeks ago I went to Houston for work.  I'd only been to Houston once for a friend's wedding and didn't have a lot of time to explore, so  I was excited to go back.  Work was teaching a class on Johnson Space Center.  I was excited about going, but later found it wasn't that big or exciting.

I arrived Sunday afternoon and was picked up by a co-worker who was already there.  Met up with my friend Craig and we went out to lunch.  Then spent the rest of the day preparing.

Work consumed Monday and Tuesday.  Tuesday night we headed down to the Kemah boardwalk for dinner and riding their roller coaster. 

Wednesday and Thursday were pretty dull, just going to work and hitting the gym and then dinner.

Friday we finished work around noon.  After a nice workout, we headed to the Saint Arnold brewery in Houston for their happy hour.  Good beer and times.  Then dropped my co-worker off at the airport and headed to the Astros game at Minute Maid park.  Decent game, but I missed the fireworks since the game ran late and I needed to get back to my hotel to pack for my flight the next morning.

Good week, good times.
