Anyone in Texas?

Hey Everyone!

It looks like I may be moving to Texas soon, south of Dallas to be exact. Is there anyone on here from that area? I have some questions about the area and such.

Thanks!
AY

feel free to PM me anytime with any questions you may have. I live about 60 miles SE of Dallas and I work in Irving across the highway from Texas Stadium.

I live about 90 miles due East of Dallas. Where are you looking to move to? Waco area?

Jim, as I was just telling txjourneyman, if all goes well, I'll probably be moving somewhere near the Ennis area.

Thats a heck of a lot better than Dallas.:D

I am just South of Ft Worth.

As you probably guessed I hate Dallas with a passion:)

Keep in mind guys, I'm going to be here alone for a while....we still have kids in school, and they won't be moving out until after the school year is up. So, if I get the job, then I'll have a lot of free time on my hands and nothing to do but hunt and fish...(if I get caught chasing 2 legged deer, I'll probably get castrated)....so maybe some of you can help me find my way around?

Greg, how are you going to give a landmark next year when they demoTexas Stadium?:D
I just heard on the news that now that Irving has complete control they are going to take it down. Just like the Cowboys give you some thing that is worthless...

NOT ME! I may work in the metromess but I live on 5 acres in unincorporated Van Zandt Co. No way in hell would I live here. And if I could find decent work and wages in the country I'd never come into town!

Amen to that Greg!! If I didn't have to travel so much, I'd live at our lakehouse more. But I need to be close to the DFW Airport. We are south of Ft. Worth but it's still too close to the Metromess. My corporate office is on Coit and 75 but I only go there for meetings about every other month.

Life is too short to live in Dallas or Ft. Worth.

You all live in the bug mess up there and I'm parked out here in the buttcrack of the state! At least when we say it takes an hour to drive somewhere we are talking about 70 miles distance! And our trees are mesquite and scrub oak.Most my friends live up near DFW area...thank goodness for phone and internet or I wouldn't hear much from them! There are some crazy folks south of DFW...The Rev,Kanga....that type people!:D

Amen to that! We have some people in denial around here. When I use the phrase metroplex, I am including Dallass, Ft. Worthless, and everything within commuting distance in one lump sum.[8D]

I am a little envious of the Bass Pro and Cabelas, but since the Gander Mountain in Amarillo is only an hour away, I can survive.:D

RE: Anyone in Texas?

Hey, I wanted to say thanks to everyone who PMed me and offered their help. The job was a bust, so it doesn't look like I'm going to be moving out that way after all. Thanks all the same, though!
