There are several of us able to offer rides from IAH to the brunch. Since you're nice enough to guest me into the PC on Friday, you may consider yourself with a guaranteed spot to the brunch. I'll be heading back to IAH as well for a flight out at 6PM afterward.

J.Edward was offering EUA's to his trunk :D

Perhaps we should get an official count of how many people need rides and how many will be able to provide rides?

I'll have a car (probably with room for 3) but I won't be staying near IAH. I'll need to know if I have to run up there to pick people up before heading to Empire.

I guess if enough of us don't have a ride, we could pool together and rent a car?
I can get one anytime guaranteed, but cost may be high, I can't imagine it being more than a taxi though!

I just don't see sense in renting a car for the entire time I am there when I flew in and staying at the event hotel.

Also, on Friday I can guest people in, but my flight doesn't get into IAH until 4:20...

If it ends up being more people needing rides than available car seats, pooling for a rental car might work. I can get a car last-minute at VERY reasonable rates.

Hartmann,

Need to be added to confirmed list on that Sunday Brunch......

Sounds like a decent place, and prices better than the airport ;)

I'm just glad they have margaritas. Ever since ConciergeMike mentioned that as a desire last week, I've been thinking about it and it sounds pretty good.

I MAY be able to attend--probably fully contingent on employment.
The +1 likes to sleep, so I'm thinking she would pass. If I do go, I can't provide rides down from IAH, but might be able to swing up to IAH on the return, if needed.

With those numbers, it doesn't look like I will need to make the trip up to IAH to get people.
