You've obviously never been to East Texas.

East Texas is a HUGE pine forest.

I've always been amused by the difference between the John Wayne movie of the Alamo, which shows the Alamo on a dusty barren plain, and the reality, which is that the Alamo (besides being in DOWNTOWN San Antonio -- the city grew up around it) is surrounded by dense green forests for countless miles in every direction, except for the parts that have been cut down for development or crops.

Why, yeah...sure...especially thick pine forest in the mountains between Austin and Brownsville. [...little sarcasm and irony there.] Or does everything south of the Arkansas part of Texas not count?
