I know that Louis likes to bar-B-Q :innocent How about we ask him to rustle up some meat to grill. Maybe Hot Dogs or something along tha Line :roll When everybody is fat full and happy they buy more......... Just a thought. Oh he already said that he would grill for us

where is Aquatic warehouse?

[NaCl_H2O]

where is Aquatic warehouse?

US 281, just north of Bitters, off Sandau @ Gulfdale - it is a little tricky to find!

Here is the Yahoo! Maps link (http://maps.yahoo.com/maps_result?addr=Sandau+at+Gulfdale&csz=san+antoni o%2C+tx&country=us&new=1&name=&qty=).

You can come straight off of US281 (I think that you must exit Nakoma) or take 410 exit Jones Maltsberger.

Hey C, are you going to the meeting?

No, this Sunday is Juliana's birthday. I don't think that she would approve :lol ! This will be the second MAAST meeting in a row that I miss unfortunately.

If you still can't find where it's at, go to their website, aquatichousesa.com and they have a link to a map along with the store phone number in case you get lost.
