"You are right about the beaches."

I'm a born and raised Texan, but I've been all over the world and seen the prettiest beaches in existence.
I've decided that Texans don't want to know about pretty beaches.
They'd rather think that beaches are like Galveston or Corpus where the sand is like silt and sticks to you all over, the water is a muddy brown and you have to clean the tar balls out from between your toes after you get home.
By far the prettiest beaches in Texas are at South Padre, but that's a helluva long way.

Yep....I lived in Corpus in 80 on a pipeline job for my dad. South Padre is the only Texas beach in the big leagues.

It's just the way the currents hit there and bring crap from everywhere.

There's a pretty beach near Fort Hood. I haven't been there since '75 but it was the nicest one until I went to Jamaica.

Lousy boy/girl ratio.
