lol I think that's a cheating answer.
Great weather, awesome food, no state income tax, there's much more that I'm drawing a blank on right now.....
its not california, wisconsin or maryland
Once you come here you will never want to leave. There are so many things that I love about the Great State of Texas. Most of all I think the people make it the best State in the Union. And we can fly our flag as the same height as the American Flag. God Bless Texas.
Because we have more counties than Alaska has people. :rofl:
Simply because it's Texas.

I'm a native... If you're native and don't think it's the best state, something is wrong with you.
- No state income tax
- Lots of great public lands to explore and tons of recreation opportunities
- The food (BBQ Brisket, Tex-Mex, Gulf Seafood)
- The different cultures that get along and have for 100+ years (Czech, German, Mexican, Anglo, Texicans)
- Fantastic history
There are so many things...
This list would take all night.

Shiner is great stuff. Have you ever tried Rahr ? They brew right out of Ft. Worth and have a few different varieties, all of them are very good.I must respectfully disagree.
Shiner Bock!
Haven't tried it...but I willShiner is great stuff. Have you ever tried Rahr ? They brew right out of Ft. Worth and have a few different varieties, all of them are very good.
I don't drink but on occasion. I like to visit Fort Worth, so perhaps I'll look it up on the next trip.
The best thing about living in Texas is, no matter what you are talking about, the conversation always reverts to beer.:rofl:
You know it! As the 'ole shootin' range saying goes "Hold my beer and watch this!" :rofl:The best thing about living in Texas is, no matter what you are talking about, the conversation always reverts to beer.:rofl:
Great things about Texas?
The history
The friendly people
The overall conservative attitude
The gun-friendly culture ( if you can afford it...you can own it in Texas)
The landscape: we have a little of everything (except a frozen tundra...but who the hell wants that?)
The music: we have a thriving music scene...better country than Nashville!
The food: name it..we have it
Shiner, ST. Arnolds and Cellis beers!
Tito's Handmade Vodka!
Our state parks and other outdoor activities
Unique festivals and celebrations nearly year round
The fact that many different cultures live here and somehow everyone gets along very well.
We have a state pride that other states really don't have.
There are other things but these are the main ones that come to mind. I have been to many other states and several countries and they're interesting and pretty...but this is home and always will be!

OK, history check... Anyone else remember the "Ice House and Pistol range" in the mid-90s just east of 249 on Beltway 8 in Houston?You know it! As the 'ole shootin' range saying goes "Hold my beer and watch this!" :rofl:
I don't recall if they were directly part of the same business but they were RIGHT next to each other, perhaps even attached.
Ahh, the good ole days......
