Retired Texas L/E, 5 generation Texan, born/raised on the Gulf Coast of S.Texas, Ranched in the beautiful pine forests of deep East Texas, lived in Austin for a decade, now in Georgetown 30 minutes North of Austin for the past 15 years. Gotta say Texas is where it is at and still the Wild West in many respects; however, since so many out of staters are moving to Texas, making beautiful Georgetown 2023 rated as the fastest growing city in the USA for 2 years straight, the rural atmosphere is fast dwindling unless you move further from the crowds. Used to shoot my flintlocks in the backyard....no more! With borders almost 1000 miles border to border, north/south/east/west....plenty of beautiful country still! Wish out of state folks would look at other southern states instead...gotta keep Texas for Texans!
