Mpackard, I'm sorry we confused you. We were joking around about two freepers who live in Texas. Eaker is outside of Houston and Squantos lives in the panhandle almost into Oklahoma. I was pointing out to Larry (who is some sort of yankee and knows very little about Texas ;^) that once you get to ElPaso, you are about as close to San Diego as you are to other points in Texas....
Best of luck to your daughter on her trip.
