i have lived in texas (sweetwater)
and i have lived in fl (panama city)
texas is delightful because of the no humidity.
fl i like better because even though there is a lot of humidity, you get nice ocean breezes.
but, i do have to say, where i was in texas had the best nights. it didnt get dark until well after 9pm, and every night was 70deg and breezy. loved it.
but, the saying "everything is bigger in texas" is very true. its a different country down there. The united state of texas was something i heard more than once.
and never, never tow a truck with a sports car, i thought i was going to get killed based on the looks we got.
