Interesting look into Houston. My first wife's in-laws were all from the Houston area and I'm a two-time Longhorn grad, so I'm familiar with that drive from Austin to Webster. I used to have to make it about once a month. At least Northern Houston leaves you closer to the main IAH airport. I'm only familiar with The Woodlands and Spring in northern Houston as I had some friends in college from there and we used to play a soccer tournament every fall.
