kylejack Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 the burgers at the lake house are pretty damn tasty... now if only the food at the grove could catch up with the ambianceIts a good burger...and the sweet potato fries are tasty.

I guess they just weren't lit, because riding my bike down that very path is a lot of fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KimberlySayWhat Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 Or they could replace them with those lanterns that look like they're made of paper. That's what they kind of look like anyway. I like them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trae Posted December 31, 2008 Share Posted December 31, 2008 Shouldn't the City of Houston plan annual New Years Eve celebrations at Discovery Green? I don't think Houston currently has an annual event, but Discovery Green would make for the perfect place to have one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Discovery Green would also be a good place to have something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trae Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 It sure would. They could do blast off a space ship, or something. Atlanta drops a peach and Dallas drops a ball similar to the one in NYC, only 100x smaller. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
