Hey,

we're in McKinney, Texas.  I recommend doing San Antonio, the River Walk is
a neat experience.  We went to Casa Rio (just blundered onto it, not knowing
it was the first one on the river walk or whatever), really liked it.

If you're going by McKinney, gimme some warning and I'll bake some cinnamon
rolls or bagels or something and trade them to you for tales of the road.  I
can find out if Town Lake accepts kayaks :).
