Re: Houston

I have not been to Otto's in a couple of months, my cars been down, but I expect to start attending regularly in a couple of weeks.

It is on the SW side, off of 59, between the beltway and alt-90. Old, new, rare, common, you get a lot of everyhting out there, except rice. There was some trouble a few months ago after a murder at a nearby restaurant (nothing to do with the meet) but I think everything is back to normal now.

Re: Houston

Otto's sometimes has a few third gens. I think I counted 8 one time. Mostly < 5. Sometimes I'm the only one.
