Houston began early the next morning. We arrived an hour late because traffic in Lake Charles was crazy slow. The delay may have been a good thing since we closed down the George R. Brown Convention Center (GRB). Dinner at Olive Garden --yummy!-- and we were passed out quite early.
.
The second day at the GRB began at 10:30. We tried to close down the place but just didn't have the energy. That night we ate at Saltgrass Steakhouse --YUM! Another early night.
We drove home on Saturday. I think I'd have liked a few more hours at the quilt show. There were some quilts that I didn't see.
I made a few mistakes this year. Don't get me wrong, I had a blast and saw many, many quilts. I took about 500 photos! But as we talked about the show on the way home, I realized that there were more quilts I'd have really liked to see.
It's easy to miss a few, even if you go up one aisle and down the next. But strutting around in a boot was exhausting and (sometimes) painful, making the chances of missing something even more likely.
What I did not miss was the beauty of the city. We drove into and out of the downtown area every day, giving me several chances to click a few pics. I hope you enjoy these.
I've begun processing the pictures taken at GRB and will post some of those in a day or two. Expect them to be in all of the SQIs and PIWs for the month of November.
