My twelve year old daughter turned cartwheels when she saw the list of retailers for LC-II. Should all be coming on line just as she starts at CRHS across the street. I am in Biiiiiiig trouble!!

Walked over to check out the new park as well. Pretty good crowd at lunchtime; the Lake House was not open or they could have done pretty good business. Saw Barbara Bush getting a one-on-one tour of the park with her Secret Service escort discretely following. She did not get panhandled.

The Baker Street Pub and Grill opened at 5:00 PM yesterday (I happened by at 5:09). Pub food, pub decor and unusually for a new Katy restaurant, a full staff of trained servers! Lots of nooks, dartboards, a small bandstand for live music. Since HAIF-ers are always in the know, I will clue you in that the restrooms are purposely hidden behind the last bookcase on the right! If there's ever a Katy and Points West HAIF meet up, this is the place to do it.

No Chuy's, but the Mission Burritos is open. Virtually a clone of Chipotle (or vicey versy); Chipotle's been around since 1993 according to their website, Mission Buritto says they've been in Houston since 1996, but I remember them from Southern California in the 70's (if it's the same outfit).

I was hanging out at the Firkin and Phoenix a couple of weeks ago; I can't tell you how happy having a neighborhood pub with decent ales makes me !

Wow, three stories of apartments above retail! At least it's walkable space for those residents, assuming the big store in the back is still grocery. I'd love to see townhomes instead of apartments; pride of ownership goes a long way towards keeping a complex looking nice.

- Swampwalk - Where Styrofoam Cups go to Die - Ol' Brownie - The Long Cesspit - El Rio de Vagrantos - ??? Seriously, the Bayou is a nice place to walk during the day but you're never going to have commercial development along it as long as it's part of the storm water system and can rise twenty feet in an hour.
