Is that your loss or a Texas gain?
Too hot for you? Granted, the state of Texas is no longer the territory it was once; however, it continues to be the best state for me. How long is only a matter of time. The d’rats from all directions are planting their boots on Texas soil. Worse is the fact we’re so dog gone friendly we open our doors and arms for them, inviting ‘em in.
I went to a year of HS in Ausrin, and actually got a degree years later from TAMU. Right, it is too hot for too many months and no real seasons. I ve lived in half dozen other states and am originally from NE Missouri south of Hannibal. I prefer Texas to CA and Iowa, but not to MO, northern Idaho, Eastern Oregon, and eastern Kansas. The scenery and seasons in the first 3 are a huge attraction for this old country boy. BTW, my in laws from Texas always want to come to MO to deer hunt.
