Hey, Houston!

I'm new around here, but don't let that distract you. A native Houstonian, ready to take charge of your inbox on the weekends. You're in good hands, I promise, and look forward to getting to know you.

One thing to know about me is that I'm a father of three children, ages 7-14, and Father's Day is really big deal around here. 

So if you haven't already nailed down where to eat, drink and enjoy the special day, here is the place to find it. 

Now, here is the news.
