Bushan
ttran
EK
Spike

Thanks for helping with the club, Kev. Unfortunately, I will have to miss this trip as my schedule is already booked. I definitely will love to tag along, but must await job news first

UPDATE

we need to be in San Marcos at around 8:00-8:30 in the morning. This will mean we will probably need to leave Houston around 5:00-5:30. We need to Be there this early because Niko for m the Dallas club has set up a tour of the water system by someone who is studying the aquatic botany of the San Marcos water ways. This will also give us time later on to do something else.

Also, we need a common meeting place.

Thahn (confirmed)
Bushan & wife (confirmed)

Casey Williams, the guy that will lead us, will be meeting us on Saturday at 8:00AM at the Aquarena Center. I understand that the Aquarena Center is something that everyone there knows so it should not be hard to find.

He said that he will take us on a walk by the river that will be about 2 hours. Half way through the walk there is a public park where you can stay if you are tired/hot. Or you can just drive to this park and meet the main group starting from there.

Casey knows the best places to look at and collect aquatic plants, since that's what he studies. We lucked out big time finding him. I don't think all of us will make it at the Aquarena Center at 8:00AM sharp, but let's try to make it as close to 8 as we can.

If anything - my cell phone is: 214-537-9759
