Haha, we say the same thing about Wal-Mart....but jokingly. I guess it's b/c we used to live in TN.
Cute post!

Except for the heat part, sounds like you're talking about Indiana. Thanks for sharing.

I can relate to quite a few of them! We even have the armadillos here. In the past few years we've had more and more. As far as I'm concerned they should be fenced and kept in Texas!!!!
Very funny!!! Thanks for sharing it, Marilyn!!!

We share a lot of traits with much of the lower 48, but we claim they are our originals. Our daughter who went to a Christian college in Arkansas and met people from all over the country, and the world, said that people don't like, and make fun of, people from Texas because of our state pride.
We won't apologize for it. After all, we are Texans!! If we'd been living in another state when I was pregnant, I would have wanted to come home so that our daughters would have been native Texans. Thank goodness, we didn't have to move. I know it sounds crazy, but most of us who have been here for a couple of generations or more just love our state. As you should love yours. Is the people not liking Texans part really true??

Those are funny Marilyn. No, I do not dislike Texas, but I guess there are probably some people who do. You can't please everyone, lol. I've actually never been to Texas, but it sounds like you really love it there. Maybe I'll have to go there some day just to see what it's like.

I've been to Texas and love it. I do have to say though, that some of the people I met were afraid more "yankees" were intending to move there. When I explained that I was just there for a visit, they were much nicer. That was about 20 years ago.
I went to a Beer Barn, Billy Bob's, and the grave site-s of Bonnie and Clyde. Great visit!!
