Despite my handle, I hate Dallas. Always loved Fort Worth. To give you an idea, I live near Keller. Used to be a sleepy community with 1 high school. They now have 5, each with 2k+ student pop. No more pastures and farms. Nothing but homes, etc.
Had never seen a six lane highway... Bet it is eight or more now.
And flat!
Lord of mercy, how East Texas was flat. High humidity(Lake Jackson area) And the trees.... if you could call them that, was few and far between. Was happy to return to Tennessee, even if it was through Arkansas.
As you can see I am very biased about my home state. Gotta have my rolling hills full of trees!
I’m in Dallas tonight.. after driving from Santa Fe and yes we drove thru Fort Worth
I liked Dallas circa 1980
When Greenville ave was king
And all those apartments at Greenville and Park Lane were white kids starting out in Bid D
And the girls were everywhere
When lower McKinney was just going homo and Deep Ellum was what?
Club Tanga on lower Greenville.
The night Stevie did his first showcase
I love Texas.....besides wifey the two most important gals in my life were here
Abilene and West Houston
My goddaughter is in Silsbee area
If I’ve told you this before just ignore me I’m old
