Would that be off of Texas 130 toll road?

I'm a Texas transplant from Chicago and love Dallas!

That looks like an okie to me!

Can always divide Alaska and make Texas the third largest state.

Actually its even worse than that map shows. In Alaska after federal, state and native corporation land are accounted for, there is less than 1% private land ownership in the state.

At the risk of being a bandwagoneer in this thread... I loves me some Texas. I've had some of the best times of my life in Grapevine, partied pretty hard in Arlington, and been in awe at the terrain, flying between Dallas and Midland on up to Amarillo. Taco trucks in Houston can't.be.beat from what I know anyway.

I always get a kick out of reading some pompous post about some state or some region. The generalization about people from this place or the other. Maybe I'm lucky, but I seem to find the nicest/smartest/most genuine people everywhere I go! Texas is definitely no exception.

That's Rick Perry in his Brokeback Mountain jacket.

Also, Leviticus 19:19 if you want to get picky,

Oh Rick Perry... I can't quit you.

Not sure, I just grabbed the best picture out of the dozens rolling through my friends' pics.

I spent 4 years flying low-levels in that area...and I can't for the life of me figure out what you mean by "terrain" in that area. You mean hundreds of miles of brush and wind farms?

If you meant Big Bend, I get it.

All that means is that there's nothing worth saving for the future east of the Rockies.

I was wondering the same thing.

Out west is really going to blow your mind.

It's so hot and flat here, I can't stand it. Counting down the days till graduation and freedom!

I didn't mean high, peaking, or otherwise terrain. West Texas was just something I hadn't seen before, and I can appreciate all of that open space. I did that flight down low in a Cirrus instead of up in the 40's so it was a different perspective than I'm accustomed to. ADS.LBB.LNK. That's fly-over country to the maximum there, but hey, I can dig that too...

The overnights in EGE, GUC, MTJ, etc. are fun, but we don't get bummed out if a Texas trip pops up either.

I'm very sorry about your routing.
