[Karen]

Ok so I went to Houston this weekend and I forgot my camera >:O so I
wasn't able to take pictures of the store but I will be going back
this weekend...so...NO WORRIES :D

I wasn't able to speak to any managers though, UGH! But I have been
calling and I am trying to get something for this coming up weekend. I
will be leaving Friday and staying until Monday so hopefully someone
can fit me into their schedule!

Here is the information I got.
