Re: houston...what to do?

I've been living in Houston for the past 6 months. Best thing i Have found to do is to drive to San Antonio. I go almost every Friday, i leave work @ 5-5:30 so i stop at San Antonio Raceway at about 8:00 when there's stuff running.
I'm biased though, because I'm from San Antonio and everything i know is there.
