I'll not discount the importance of a store where I can buy diesel, DEF, a sammich, and a t-shirt. Road trip essentials.

And on the weekends in summer, I'd always be at Barton Springs Pool. It is 100% natural aquifer-fed water. Water temp hovers 68-74 year round, which feels amazing when it is 110 out.

You didn't have to pay the 2 bucks or whatever to enjoy the spillway at the bottom of the picture, so that is where the interesting characters would hang out in various states of dress with odd smells floating through the air. :lol:

I would prefer to live in Texas over any of the three West Coast states. Things just seem to make more sense in Texas.

I liked San Antonio but upper Texas is the pits.

This would have been a shorter movie if the Alamo had a basement.

And that's why Texas isn't on my list of places to live. Too many CA idiots have moved there and are influencing the culture already
