Texas!!!

Well, it has been 30 years since I lived in Dallas, and already I realize how much I really miss it! The people are so friendly! It is so big! Downtown! There is so much to see, and there is so much going on all the time! The roads are amazing! And there is always new construction going on everywhere!

Monument to Tyler native Earl Campbell, who played high school football in Tyler, college football at the University of Texas, winning the Heisman Trophy in 1977, then a hall of fame career in the NFL for the Houston Oilers. I met him at a club in Houston in 1984, and saw him play near the end of his career, for the New Orleans Saints vs. the Cowboys.
