• Anyone going to the Chevelle concert at the Pavilion on October 10th?

  Hector, thanks for the parking recommendation on Six Pines. Is that lot free for concert guests or do you have to prepay online ahead of time?

• Anyone going to the Chevelle concert at the Pavilion on October 10th?

  Saw the announcement for Chevelle at the Cynthia Woods Mitchell Pavilion on Thursday, October 10th at 8:00 PM. I always keep their albums on my trail running playlist because the high energy and distinct vocals are great for keeping pace on long runs. They seem to have a surprisingly massive fan base around here every time they tour. Is anyone else planning to grab tickets for this show?

• Battle of the Oaks game - Grand Oaks vs Oak Ridge

  Ran past the sports complex early Saturday morning. Cleaned up well after the Friday crowd. Grand Oaks conditioning showed on the field in that fourth quarter. They did not look gassed when Oak Ridge made that late push.

• Anyone planning to take their family to Boni's Nutcracker this year?

  I run past their studio space on weekend mornings and those kids are in there practicing before the sun is even up. Serious effort. If you are doing the Saturday evening show, park a little further out and walk over. Beats idling in line and gets your steps in.

• Township paying millions to Houston to block annexation

  Thanks GrogansMillGal, that context makes a lot of sense. So this just extends the long-standing protection agreement we already had in place?

• Township paying millions to Houston to block annexation

  Saw the news this morning while stretching at Northshore Park. The Township is preparing to pay millions to Houston under an updated regional participation agreement to block future annexation. Millions sounds like a huge chunk of cash, but it uses regional sales tax revenue to keep our current local structure and avoid getting absorbed by Houston. What do you all think, is this money well spent?

• Weekend plans for Oct 5-11

  Fall weather is finally making outdoor activities bearable. If you want family time outside between October 5 and 11, just head out to the trails early in the morning before the afternoon crowds arrive near Town Center.

• Looking for rich pho broth near The Woodlands

  EAD is our family's go to spot now. We have never had a problem getting a table, even on a weekend, and the kids actually finish their bowls.

• House cleaner recommendations (recurring, every other week)

  I'll second MaidPro. Our cleaner has been with us for over a year now and she's just fantastic. It's so nice having the same person who knows our house.
