Houston, Texas here..actually Clear Lake but the post office deems it as Houston.  I have a couple of good friends nearby who are big GRRM fans as well.  Perhaps a get together is in order?

Just got back from Dallas, TX, was there visiting an artist who I had commisioned a painting back in february, but he didnt have it finished. They had an auction and I won an original painting. Later that day I was talkign to him about after he completes the first piece for me if he would be interested in working on another. We got to talking more and I brought up George R. R. Martin, and he had read A Song of Ice and Fire, so I suggested that my next commission would be a scene from the series, and he thought that would be amazing and real fun to work on. So here in the future I will have a one of a kind, water color piece from a scene from the novels heh heh. Below are some links to some pictures when I was in Dallas over the weekend.

Cave In, The original water color painting I won.

Rob Alexander showing off a playmat he had just finished working on, all he used was a sharpie!

Rob again, working on two playmats, that when combined create one scene.

A few of Rob's limited prints.

You can also visit Rob's site at www.robalexander.com , most of his work is 95% water color.

I'm in Austin :)  We had a small Austin BWB meet a couple of years ago, but I don't know if those boarders are still here or not.

I met Lacy in LA, of course :)  And I know LadyIsabel is up in the Dallas area.  Ser Hot Pie is also in Austin :)

[Raidne]

I'm in Houston. Rice Village area. Naturally if we all decide to meet for drinks, etc., I think it should be over by me, like at the Ginger Man. ;)

Seems like we do have quite a few people from Texas, nice.

Representing San Antonio.

A Texas get-together would be great.  I'm game.
Houston, Austin, or DFW all sound great to me.
SA would be fine to. :)

I don't really post but I have been intermittantly lurking since... um 2000?  Yes, the sad but true confessions of a lurker.

I should think that a get together at the Texas Rennaisance Festival would be in order.  Perhaps we can put that on an agenda if we decide to get together for drinks?  Someone take the lead here.  I am a lazy bastard

Well, opening weekend (Sat Oct 6 or Sun Oct 7) sounds like the best deal if we plan ahead.  Only $11.00 per head online.  21 bucks at the gate.
I've only been to TRF once, many many years ago.  Any TRF regulars here?

[GryymUmbra]

I go regularly.  As a matter of fact, I married my bride there four years ago  :love: I plan on being there opening weekend.

I've never been to a Ren Faire, but if that's near Columbus Day weekend I may be out of state :(

I attend the Ren Fair every year, http://www.texrenfest.com/, it begins October 6th and runs through November 25th. Nice recommendation GryymUmbra, even though I am only 20, no drinking for me until February, I would still love to hang out. I am not sure on the weekend yet either, not until I get my schedule for college etc.

Hi ya'll, I'm in the Dallas area. Representing the Dallas chapter of ASOIF Society. How many of ya'll are going to the TriCon in NC. Aug. 3-5? I'm trying to think of a plan, I've never been to a Con. :cheers:

[Rogue Warrior]

Is there anyone from the Dallas area driving to the TriCon NC., that might want to split gas money? I really want to make it to this Con.
