TEXAS
"Since you have chosen to elect a man with a timber toe to succeed me, you may all go to hell and I will go to Texas."
Having lost his Congressional seat to peg-legged attorney Adam Huntsman, Davy Crockett
takes his leave of Tennessee, 1835
Don't get me wrong -- I am from New England and proud of it. But now seven years in Texas, I can clearly see its downfalls: the weather, the taxes, the politics and a special shout-out goes to the natives. Thanks to my husband for helping me escape!
So, this page is dedicated to all things Texas that this Northerner has discovered (and appreciated) in her short time in the Promised Land.
As they say, none preach so fervently as the newly converted.
