NDR: New to Houston...

[PvilleStang]

Just moved to Cypress, and need a few pointers from the locals:

Softball leagues? Happy hour bars? Country bars? Other interesting things to do that aren't an hour drive away?

Wow! You just moved to houston, huh?
Well, congratuations!

 

[PvilleStang]

Congrats?!? I'd much rather be in either Ft. Worth or Austin, but I gotta go where the money is...

OK. Correction. Congratulations on a job!

I guess. I can understand why someone would like to livein DFW; but Houston can't be bad either. Especially since (1) it is in Texas; and (2) the job provides a paycheck.

Trust me dude. A paycheck is always good. You wil dig it; and the wife will dig it. Paychecks are good

Hi, Kevin,
I'm in the Cypress area as well. Welcome to Houston. Kilburns Pub is a local watering hole that has live music. When I'm not driving downtown, though I usually do, I will go to Brix Wine Bar or The Crooked Ferret, depending on my mood and how grungy I look.:shocked2: I can't give you info on country bars because that's just not my scene. I think most of the softball leagues in this area are company team oriented, but you can call the Cypress Creek YMCA and find out if they have anything. They have a huge facility and keep expanding so my guess is that you will find what you're looking for through them. When I really don't feel like driving downtown I will hang out with friends and play poker. Do you play Hold 'Em? New players are always welcome!
Also, my NW Houston dive buddies and I get together frequently and drive to Huntsville to dive the Blue Lagoon. You're more than welcome to join us. Feel free to shoot me a PM if you have any more questions.
