Justin, I agree...on each thing. I love to go down to Houston (Briley's and Carter Country among other places) and I have to say Houston is a beautiful, thriving, alive city....it's just too darn big for me. LOL About 50 miles out from downtown Houston on I-10, I go from 75-80 mph to almost a screeching HALT!!! I have no idea how anyone could even think about living in Los Angeles. For every 5-10 stores and/or restaurants (chains) in San Antonio there is 4-5 times that many in Houston. When I was last in Houston (about 3 1/2 months ago) I saw more Home Depots on just the outskirts as we have totally in SA.
Being Home on the Range is where it's at for me and the Big-Little town or Little-Big town of San Antonio (depending on how one looks at it) is already too big for me. This planet is getting too over-populated. In another 10-20 years I'll have to find my Wide Open Spaces in either Big Bend, Mexico or out in the Gulf of Mexico on a big Yacht, if one of you good folks here will loan me the money to buy one. I think $5 million should just about cover it. LOL Heck, I'll even take all of you on yearly cruises...which is only fair since y'all will be footin' the bill.
And BTW, yes, Ksquared handled things very well.
