There is another conference coming up in Auston or Houston, I forget which. I may hold off and try to go to that with him. This one in particular is hugely associated with his job, the other one is as well but not on the grand scheme of this one. I may hold off and do TX instead. Might be able to see a Rangers game (depending on where the conference is) and then see a rodeo etc... we'll see...
I don't believe that any town would not want people to bring their families though. I know that this one may cater to young adults but even party cruise ships have things for children to do....
I'm not exactly planning to take my son down the "strip" and introduce him to hookers either. I'm a little appalled at that insinuation....
