Well, I've lived in Wisconsin for 22 years and Texas for a total of 16 years.
Bought retirement property in Missouri because I wanted the worst of both places!!

But I had a pretty awesome garden, the soil was pure black gold. And the four seasons were absolutely amazing. It was the best place to raise my kids...so I will give Minnesota Kuddos. I cant say I was impressed with ice fishing. WHY? And NO way would I ever DRIVE on the Mississippi river, that's just crazy!!....LOL
But Texas is my home sweet home and you gotta be as mean as rattler to live here.

I've finally found my home. I love it here.

Ha ha, they have one for Michigan too, but it's about ice and snow and freezing your @#*& off instead of baking in your car. Just wait, you'll see.

You bet. I am from Jackson Michigan originally but worked for a while at Weyerhauser's Structurwood plant in Grayling. A very cool place.

Um, um, um,mmm,um...I'm gonna tell WIHH that you were mean to a Texan. Watch out for that cast iron skillet, Bro!
Sigh, there's just something about Texas men that makes my knees weak!
