How long to drive to OH????

Hey Ft Worth OHers... how long does it take to get to houston. I will stop at Russell Stovers and Buckees So I think 20 min at each. I want to get to the hotel in time to settle and go to the grads board meeting at three!  Can anybody make suggestions on time to leave and about how long it will take to get to the hotel??


Sooooooo excited can't wait to see evryone!!

Map your trip on Mapquest. You can add stops and it will give you the amout of miles and the time it will take to get from Ft worth to Houston

Oh I know about that but Mapquest doesn't take traffic into consideration. Last time we were over and hour getting from point a-b in houston when mapquest said 10 min!! Wanted a real time frame!! From those who have driven it!! Last time I was a passenger and cant remember when we left or when we got there just that hour it took to go 10min according to Mapquest!!
Thanks though!

There isn't anything that can figure out Houston's traffic into consideration -  CUZ YOU NEVER KNOW ABOUT THAT DANG TRAFFIC DOWN THERE....

Coming back from  Galveston  - it took us forever to get through HOuston - we were stuff in a traffic jam............no wreck..............just people getting off and on................ about 45 min to 1 hr....

THAT CAN'T BE IN ANYONE'S PLAN !!  LOL

Meggie,

Save the trip to Russell Stovers.  Yes, bigger variety but cheaper at Wally World and Target'.  If you want to be there by pm 3:00 you may want to be gone by 8:00 am.  We're leaving Trinidad around then but I have to go get my paycheck, get it cashed and head south from there.  

Precious from my house in terrell 30 miles east of dallas from my door step to Houston with a stop at Buckee's and two teens it takes us anywhere from 4.-5 hours giving time for traffic; my MIL leaves in RiverOaks, and my Sissy is in Katy....so we drive this all the time;
Sweetie, russell stovers is right here in Terrell, the distribution center- what is it that you are wanting cause I can run over there any time and get it for you?? less a stop for you~
We are leaving at 9 and I thinking we will get there in Houston around 1-2 not sure how fast Jodie drives.....Also, are you stopping at Collin Street Bakery?? that place is always packed, and over priced..LOL

Ilike those bars they have that are real low in sugar if not sugar free! Can't remember the name of them but I can't find them anywhere here, even Wallyworls and Target do not have them. No to the collin street bakery! Been there done that but RS stop also makes a good pott stop and maybe Ill get lucky and there will also be a sbuxs for round 2 of the day!!

Meggie,

Negative!  Repeat Neg-a-tive on a SBux in Corsicana!  Why do you think I have to go to blooming Ennis to get my fix(s)?  It is the last one on I-45 before getting all the way down to Huntsville.  It is in Ennis at the 552B(?) off ramp.  Follow the signs to Chili's and you'll find it in the same shopping center.

Thanks to my peeps for all the trip suggestions!! Going to mapquest getting map, skipping collen street and going to russell stovers but not getting starbucks tinn bryan!! Yall are so good to help and you know I love my Sbux! I guess I will leave between 7 & 8am!!

Sooooo excited!!

That sounds like a better plan leaves you time to stop and eat and rest before the party'n starts. Can't wait to see everyone. Everyone Be Safe Traveling !
