Exploring Our State Parks!

Spring is the perfect time to explore all the wonderful State Parks Texas has to offer.  This month we headed west of Texas to Stephen F. Austin State Park.  It’s only a short drive from downtown but is a world away from the city.  Best known for its bike trails, SFA SP is a beautifully wooded preserve located on the Brazos River.  It’s the perfect atmosphere for your everyday backpacker or weekend warrior.  We hit all the trails in under 3 hours while stopping to enjoy the scenery at the many great overlooks & getting to know each other at rest points.  Next month is our camping trip to Huntsville State Park where we will have a weekend full of activities including hiking, horseback riding, fishing campfires and more! Events And Adventures Houston

Getting Out And Being Active In 2014!

A great end to 2013 has led to a great start in 2014!  Events have been packed and we’ve started the year off right with a couple great parties at some of our favorite venues like Howl at The Moon & Whiskey River.  We know a lot of folks wanted to get out and be active in 2014 so we’ve had a lot of fun playing tennis, volleyball & even kickboxing to start the year.  Next week is exciting with hiking trips, a painting party, archery lessons & more as well as the announcement of the February calendar of events! Events And Adventures Houston

An Amazing New Years Eve!

Talk about an amazing start to 2014!  Our New Year’s Eve party was perhaps the best ever.  We had around 90 members & 23 guests come and enjoy a night at the amazing & historic Hotel Galvez.  The hotel dates back to the early 1900’s & our roaring 20’s theme was a huge hit.  Almost everyone wore attire from the period and you really felt like you were at a fancy ball in 1920!  The champagne toast at midnight was a magical moment that we were all so thrilled to share with one another.  2014 is open to so many new adventures and possibilities.  We’re all so happy to be members of a club that opens so many doors for us.  New adventures, new experience and best of all new friends! Events And Adventures Houston!

Holiday Traditions at E&A!

One of our favorite holiday traditions is the Limousine Christmas Lights tour!  Every year we fill Party Limousines in search of the best holiday light displays in Houston.  The best way to enjoy them is on a Party Limo so you don’t have to worry about driving and you can just enjoy the show!  This year we saw the Lights in the Heights, Prestonwood Forest and enjoyed all there was to see in River Oaks.  The lights were great this year and the party on the Limo was one to remember!  Events And Adventures Houston

Searching for Walter Mitty......

Walter Mitty

Have you done anything noteworthy or mentionable? That is the question that plagues Walter Mitty in the movie “The Secret Life of Walter Mitty.” First published in 1939 by James Thurber, Walter Mitty is a mild man with a vivid fantasy life. In his fantastic daydreams, he is the heroic, adventurous, romantic man he longs to be and personally triumphs. In Ben Stiller’s remake of the 1947 classic, Walter Mitty is trapped behind a desk where his biggest real-life adventure is trying to fill out an online dating profile. When asked what he has done that is noteworthy or mentionable, he has no answer.

Are you Walter Mitty?
Unbeknownst to Thurber and Stiller, they wrote a movie that embodies the spirit of Events & Adventures, an invitation-only club of singles who spend time together nearby or on the road having fun. Our members are often former Walter Mittys who have kicked off their daydreams and are now living the adventure. Events & Adventures plans activities for every personality and adventure level – from white water rafting or skydiving to hiking or cosmic bowling, there is an event to help you shed your Walter Mitty shell.
Don’t get stuck behind your computer playing games or risking virtual match ups, daydreaming about the fun your life could be and having the zest to seize it…Get out and live it with other singles, just like you and let Events & Adventures do all the work! With Events & Adventures, you can make your dreams a reality, all you have to do is sign up and show up – we take care of the rest. 2013 is coming to an end, make sure that 2014 is the year you do something noteworthy and mentionable. Get out. Have fun. And, maybe, meet that special someone.
Live the adventure. Events & Adventures is creating the “Walter Mitty Award” to identify “the most Walter Mitty Events & Adventures member. Stay tuned. Details are being finalized.
