Jimin...TX?
Welp...it's official! Got a new job and am soon to relocate in Texas. Tough decision no doubt...I'm leaving my little slice of heaven behind. Head rules the heart and I gotta go...so what I'm wondering is where the nearest sand is to Longview/Marshall TX. I've heard about the drags in LA but are there any dunes or strickly sand (river bottom) areas where a person would strap on the paddle tires for the day?
Another question for you East Texans...I know there are no state sales tax, but are the utilities and property taxes really outrageous? What should I consider when looking for a place to call home in the area? Hope to find an acre or two, convenient, low crime, rural area. Any info on blending into the Texas way of livin' would be greatly appreciated!
I know this is sort of OT...so if you want you can PM me with replies...thanks a lot.

Thanks guys for the replies. Just survived my first day of rigorous training as a QHSE Coordinator for Weatherford Fracturing Technologies...it's the OIL FIELD industry and I'm gonna be the Longview district's new "Safety Guy" (mobennies--co. truck, phone, laptop, office, etc.). I've got lot's to learn and it's a big change from what I'm use to--being one of the guys that sweats, bleeds, and does the "dirty work"...if you know what I mean! Anyway, I'm really stoked about the big change so bare with me as I gloat a little....WHOOHOO!
Again, thanks for keeping me abreast of the local areas and such...looks like I'll be making more than one annual trip back "home" to LS...I think its further to Kermit, TX?!?! Of course my kids a little tweaked about Dad moving away( [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] as am I )but her response when I asked her how she really felt blew me away and made me feel better.
Looking forward to meeting you someday, MrMeaner! Anyone that has a stable so full of DS's is sick and insane and has my utmost respect!
Jowl?! I'm privy to the knowledge that MrHp makes the best breakfast jowl anywhere...and builds fast DS's to boot!
Change is tough but good....
