    Where in Louisiana? My boyfriend's from Leesville, and, his family still lives there. I went there for Easter, and, was on the Sabine River for most of it. Swam in Toledo Bend. And, gambled in Lake Charles. Fun, fun, fun! But, yeah, depending on where you're at, if we're going to get together in Texas, Louisiana folks might not have far to drive. I know it's only five hours from where David lives to Leesville!

    Shreveport. I think it's about thirty miles north of Leesville! That's where my sister and youngest brother were born! I was thinking about conjoined Louisiana/Texas meet but didn't know how that idea would flow amongst others.

    Oh, yeah, I'd be down for that. I'd be cool with driving four or five hours somewhere. No more than that, unless it was going to be a huge gathering, like the ones in Utah. But, for a few folks, heck yeah, I'd drive. Shreveport's not far from the metroplex at all...we could meet at a point between Houston, Dallas, and, Shreveport...if there is one.

    Actually, my boyfriend is from Leesville. I was just there at Easter, and, loved it. We spent a lot of time at Toledo Bend and on the Sabine River. They have a great camp site on the river. Maybe we could do something there...it's only about five hours from the metroplex, about four hours from Houston. And, the dogs could run around and play in the water and so could the people. Just a thought!

    Are there any dog parks in Shreveport? I know that would be cool, cuz I'd get a hotel and go into the city to the casinos at night.

    But, we could very well pick a point in the middle of all three major cities (Houston, Dallas, and, Shreveport), but, I don't know much about anything in that area...I guess if anyone shows interest in doing this, we could maybe look up dog parks or camp sites or something in that area...just brainstorming.

    I'm cool with whatever, though...whether it be some folks from Texas and from Louisiana or just Louisiana or just Texas. I hope we can get some people interested, though, as it would be really cool to have four or five pet talkers! Anyone interested?

    I am in Texas right now, and will be here until a little bit after June 10th (which is when my sisters wedding is). I live right over the Louisiana border in Texas, and Shreveport is definitely not that far.

    Just depends on when it would take place before I know if I could come or not.

    So, what's the consensus then? If we can do it before molucass leaves texas, we could at least have four or five us. would we want to meet in the dallas/fort worth area, closer to shreveport, or try to come up with somewhere right in the middle? dallas folks could carpool if it were to take place in shreveport, maybe. any other thoughts? any time frames that DON'T work for people? any drive that people are NOT willing to take? I'd like to make this happen, but, we definitely need some more specific ideas. I'm excited, though, just at the possibility!

    I can't really drive to Dallas, but I could drive to Shreveport, so if the Dallas people were willing to carpool, that would be great.. I probably could come if it was in the middle, but I'm not sure.

    I really hope this takes place, I would love to meet fellow PTers.

    What's your maximum drive time? I'd be up for four or five hours.
