Our area has and is becoming California East.

Merica ! Go west old man !

More specifically, it is San Francisco Bay Area East. They get the tax advantages of Nevada but are still close enough to the bay to head over for the weekend and get their man-bun washed and fluffed and then have some ramen at that new place that just opened and is all the rage.

Word: Idaho

Spey you ever visit where you are in the 80’s? Man it was nice. By the 90’s it was creeping into California East……

Brew does.

Spey think Springtown,Weatherford,Breckenridge,Graham,Decatur...........all within a half hour to 45 minutes west of Fort Worth.Small town feel without all the big city bullschit.

Dallas has all the restaurants, nightlife and art museums..
So does Ft. WORTH...where I was for 1 yr...

Austin is very cool back in the 90 's too....

No idea about today?

Listen to whistles advice...be close but not smack dab in it.

Austin is the Portland of the south. It’s character and charm are currently overshadowed by lunatics.

Dallas, and Texas, are both noted for their conservative attitudes.

Texas residents please don't hate me, my family goes way back to the Texas Republic, we lived there for eight years and have visited several time since leaving.

Texas is gorgeous, but it has this kind of tacky side it never really shakes. It's also being developed at an alarming rate, fine if you like living in the big city. Chose a great location in the country and a housing development or factory is liable to spring up next door.

Driving is a little on the crazy side, however 70 MPH speed limits (minimus really) are pretty nice for getting someplace in a hurry.

Where you heading to? I’m here on a try-out basis. I like Sugar Land but I’m a burbanite. Nothing so far says we gotta stay here.

Nope. Never. Horrible place. Nope nope. Nope.

prolly can eliminate Needham too, huh?

I go ski there every year but wouldn’t want to live there.

It is. I’ve spent probably 40 of my summers there. My mother’s family has a cattle ranch there. We have a home there.



But the state it full....

I hear Idaho is nice!

Idaho has been a target for northern Californians.

Any town in Az outside of Phoenix is still a stronghold of conservatism. So all youse carpetbaggers stay away.

"They're murders, rapists and some, I assume, are good people."

Texas is a mixed bag - as are most places.

You pay your money and you take your chances….

Thanks Ron. That is the type of area we will be looking for.

Drove through on my escape from Commiefornia. Did not bother to stop.
