Thanks for your generosity! Seriously, Mrs. USC and I (Illinois natives) are looking at properties around Kerrville in Texas. Flying down next weekend to look at a few homes. We're planning our move in the next year or two. I don't want to be here in the People's Socialist RepubliK of Illannoyed when the shit hits the fan here.
I've always liked Texas, felt more at home there than I ever have here.
I defected from the Peoples Republic of Connecticut 20 years ago, and am now a full naturalized Texan. :-) Texas is a special place, you’ll love it! Good luck with your home search! My only complaint right now is I wish our politicians would step to the plate like Gov Brewer, Pecos Perry needs to go after Federal intrusion like he went after that coyote!
