    I think our state is beautiful. Oregon has the ocean, the garden of Eden in the valley, beautiful mountains and high desert. As you can see I love our state too!! :thumbup:

    I have visited Texas several times and just love the people. Don't love the heat and humidity

    We can investigate the politicians more before we vote and stop voting only on party lines! That means do your own research and not let some talk show personality tell you how it is.

    Another Okie here. Central Okie. Been here for most of my life. I did spend some time in Texas all over & in Utah. It is not a bad place to live really. I guess. Maybe? When we retire, we do think we will probably end up in Texas somewhere. For now though, all of our family is here in Oklahoma. At my parents age, I cannot leave them. Nor the grands. Wait....will I ever really be able to leave here? :-o If I had to choose another place, Tx would get my vote. :wink:
