284/365



Friday in Houston was rainy and chilly. Saturday was warmer but still rainy in the morning. This is my first look at downtown Houston. It is not like an east coast city. By all appearance the city was a place to go to work and then leave nearly empty at the end of the day. There didn't seem to be a lot of night life like you would find in Baltimore or DC. In my brief tour of downtown I didn't even see a grocery store.

Notice the lack of people on the street.

The reason for my visit was to support Patrick as he ran the Houston marathon. Above is a picture of the George R. Brown Convention Center and the Avenida de las Americas. We spent Saturday morning picking up Patrick's race packet and visiting the marathon expo.
