I'm not a native Texan. Yes...I'm just an aspiring Texan. I'm a Yankee by birth. Whew...glad I got that out of the way up-front.  I look forward to taking the trip with you, Carol. If all goes well--and I believe you and I as the noobs here have already learned to hope for the best but expect some caca to hit the fan--we could be taking the leap around the same time!
...here's to change!

Hey Beth,
There's a bumper sticker that says, "I wasn't born in Texas, but I got here as fast as I could!" I've lived in TX since 1979. My Dad was in the military and the only reason I was born in my folks hometown, was because my mom was too pregnant to fly to the new duty station right away!! Could this mean I'm a half-breed or transplant or what? Whew, confession is good for the soul!
