The second Monday of each month is the day we retired guys have wings and beer at Hooters. We go at 1:15 pm to avoid the lunch hour rush. Many are from our subdivision but we also are joined by area friends.

March 2, 2011 - Sea Center Texas

Our Ashland Retiree Club took a Harris County Pct 3 bus on a seniors trip down to Lake Jackson to visit Sea Center Texas. There are many exhibits at Sea Center Texas including the Touch Pools, Salt Marsh, Coastal Bay, Jetty, Artificial Reef, and the Offshore exhibit. The two twelve foot Touch Pools allow visitors to handle marine animals such as blue crabs, hermit crabs, starfish, urchins snails and anemones. We did a tour of the hatchery to see the tanks were they grow the Red Fish and Flounder to stock the bays and Gulf of Mexico off the upper Texas coast.

On our return to Houston, we stopped in Angleton for lunch at La Casona Mexican Restaurant. Everyone had a great time.
