Title: Where are y'all from??
Post by: 9dawgs on July 10, 2013, 08:26:05 AM
Looks like most of you folks on this site are from the Great State of Texas.  I'm partial to Texas.  My mom used to live outside of Galveston on Crystal Beach and my brother lives up near the Sam Rayburn Reservoir in a little town called Zavalla. 

I grew up in the Panhandle of Florida, spent 23yrs traveling all over the country and overseas in the US Coast Guard and have settled in Tampa, FL. At least for now.  :great:

Born in Texas, Raised in Texas, Still in Texas lol.

Born in Amarillo and grew up there, moved to Dallas for college and not managed to leave yet.

Summers are hot, but all in all not a bad place to be.  :13:

Grew up in Corpus Christi, TX and at the first chance to get out of that sleepy little town, I did.  Went to San Antonio, TX and have loved it here.  Now I can't imagine living anywhere else.  Being the hub of Texas, it's a days drive to anywhere in God's country.  LOL

I did a tour in the Army and spent some time at Ft. Leonardwood, Missouri and in the high desert of Ft. Irwin, California near Barstow, CA.  Spent a lot of time over the years visiting family up and down the west coast from San Diego, CA up to Grant's Pass, Oregon.  Beautiful out there but super expensive.  Just can't beat the low cost of living in most areas of Texas.

Born and raised in the Adirondack mountains of new York. Joined the Army in 74 and came to Texas. Other than a few short hitches in places like Korea and Germany been here just about ever since. Almost 40 years. Guess that will make us a Texan if nothing else lol...
