Honestly, what’s so great about Texas

Excellent food, beautiful scenery, lively music, friendly people, good jobs, low cost of living, a bunch of wonderful little university towns... You could say this about a lot of states, and you can say it about Texas, too.

I can’t see why people say it’s great.

I hit up Memorial Park in Houston every weekend and sip coffee under the shade with my wife while my son plays in the little playground, and it leaves me feeling happy.

I work downtown and hit up all the little restaurants in the tunnels. Sometimes catch a baseball or basketball game or get tickets to the dozens of concert venues or just enjoy one of the dozens of nice restaurants, and I like it here.
