Houston! No problemo!
Right on Texas.
Just watch out for all that “stimulus money” coming your way. There are deadly stings attached.

Hey! I noticed your copy of a picture painted by Randy Welborn of an oilwell in the Texas Big Thicket. I went to Jr. High and High School with him and have a bunch of his Paintings myself. Small world!
