    I am hoping to go to Houston this fall. It would be great to hear from others and we could meet up there.

    Hi Roselady, Know I could look it up but, where is this one at?
    Thanks in advance!
    :D
    It is in Santa Clara, just north of San Jose. The Great America exit. Very easy to get to, just off of 101.

    I'm from Houston but live in Colorado. i happened to go down last month and got to visit The River Walk in San Antonio and the mall there. and also The Alamo.
    I agree that the traffic is a bear. too many people.lots from New Orleans after kratrina hurricane hit there.

    I go every year (I live about 30-45 min away depending on traffic). It's wonderful. Classes, quilts, SHOPPING. It's like Christmas for quilters!
