BUFFALO BAYOU PARK

Thursday night, my first night in Houston, Texas ended in burst of 'hard-drinking.'  I was brought up in a home by two loving parents that taught me that if you are going to do something, you should do it right. I am guessing that this applies to drinking too. The fact is, anyone can drink.  Anyone can drink too much. But if one can drink all night and still get up before dawn and and take a ten mile urban hike - then definitionally, one did not drink too much. On Thursday, I had hike along some of the pathways at Buffalo Bayou Park and realized that there was much more than I had seen. Friday morning, I set out to explore the entire park from its west end to its east end. And when that hike was completed, I had hike ten miles, and there was time to shower up and meet my colleagues for breakfast.  It is an amazing thing to sit down for a hearty breakfast with 20,000 steps already logged for the day.














Friday was set-up day for the QuiltMarket Show in Houston. As I walked back to my hotel after meeting with my vendors I passed this giant football which has been strategically placed to remind Houstonians that they will be hosting the SUPER BOWL in 100 days.


Thinking about the Super Bowl reminds me that the Cubs are currently playing in the WORLD SERIES.  The Cubs hosted the Cleveland Indians last evening at Wrigley Field and as they will for the next two nights.  They lost the game one to nothing. Unless the Indians 'sweep'  the three Wrigley Field games, the World Series will travel eastward again back to Cleveland to crown its champion.
