I am a lost soul here in the land of the tree huggers, but I love the hill country too much now, Porsche country for sure.
I like Texas hicks a lot...  |
"very unsophisticated part of a very unsophisticated state" I would love to interpret things in a more positive direction but I would never think of describing Texas in this manner.
I have lived in the Dallas area (Grapevine, Flower Mound and Carrollton), El Paso and Padre Island and my family is from the Sulphur Springs and Clarksville area, so have some roots there as well.
Love the state and its one of the few places in the Country that I would ever think of leaving Arizona for. Should it ever leave the union, it will be difficult to keep me away...
