    Re: Ramsey Unit

    Hi!  Does anyone from the Dallas area visit Ramsey unit?  I am planning on going there Memorial Day Weekend to visit my friend in the GRAD program.  I am interested in ride-sharing if anyone wants to ride along and help w/gas.  I am planning on leaving Friday, staying over maybe at the Hospitality House or a close hotel, and visiting on Saturday (hopefully for 4 hours), then driving back on Saturday.  Let me know if you're interested.

    Also, if anyone has any experiences to share re: visitation here, it would be greatly appreciated!

    Thanks,

     Michele
