So excited to be part of the event this year. Snowdog will be at the entrance to the Laser tag in the middle of Walker St. I hope to be able to see the high-wire motorcycle act from where I am in the Circus Town area. Come visit Snowdog and get bubblized!

SNOWWOLF, Our New Member to the Team, Gets Overhauled

10/12/2011 12:19:00

The SnowWolf is undergoing a major engine overhaul, after discovering the head was filled with gunky antifreeze-ridden sludge. Cowboy Tommy is back again. Yeehaw! He helped with Snowdog when we first got him, and Snowdog hasn't missed a party yet. Jeff & Cowboy have dismantled the entire engine and gotten good news back from the shop, no cracks in the head. Yay! Other good news, Jeff found a rocker stand support in a small shop in CA without having to get the whole assembly. In the meantime, being that far into the engine, decided to replace the rings, hone the cylinder head, rebuild the carburetor, and strip and paint all the parts. Parts are two-tone orange and blue with a glitter sheen and the engine block, a beautiful silvery blue. We really need a lexan engine cover so everyone can see it!

Yuck, Tommy, spray him down!

Then inspect his handiwork...

Look how nice these look. Can't wait to get the head back so it can all go back in!

Mixers & Elixirs Recap for July 16th...Next event August 12th

07/18/2011 11:06:00

Snowdog had a fantastic time at the July 16th Mixers & Elixirs event. There aren't many more if its kind, so make sure you experience dancing under the dinosaurs before it's too late. The event runs every Friday night until the 3rd week of August. Please check the Houston Natural Science Museum for bands and food truck lineups. http://www.hmns.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=382&Itemid=356

Snowdog will be there again on AUGUST 12th, 7pm-10pm. Last time they asked me to stay a bit later. I think the crowd was enjoying the patio music I was playing as well as the bubbles and bubble wands. I overheard someone say there was a hula hoop competition as I walked inside. hehe. There were 3 other food trucks so there was a variety of food and short lines. I will definitely go before August 12th so I can enjoy the event.
