Hello fellow Texans and military brats!
I live the farthest south of those posting thus far living 45 miles west of Corpus. My dad was in the Seabees and was stationed in Corpus and Houston quite a bit although I was born in RI.
<sigh!>
Mike, I see you are also a fellow cyclist. (and favor clip pedals.) Before I was diagnosed with Hashimotos thyroiditis and then thyroid cancer I was a long distance cyclist riding around 115-120 miles a week. I just got my bike 'tuned up' and am hoping to be able to get back to riding after taking off for so many years. I'd love to hear about your riding!
Of all the towns listed so far Marion and Grand Saline are the only two I haven't heard off; my daughter lives in New Braunfels, we have a place in Kerrville and I
drive a truck for a living. I love reading y'all's posts and being able to visualize where each of y'all live!
Fluffy, thank you for the chicken fried steak recipe!! I've got to get some almond flour tomorrow over in Corpus at Sun Harvest so I can try it.
Congratulations on the birth of your daughter, Josie! Being a mother myself I know what a special time this has to be for the two of you.
I hope this thread keeps up. I sure love reading about fellow Texans in this sea of others.
