Well, I'm an Arkie, but I used to live in Amarillo so I'm going to join in...
Things I love about Texas:
Palo Duro Canyon: The Musical TEXAS at the Pioneer Ampitheatre at the base of the canyon is AWESOME. Especially the beginning with the lone horseman riding along the rim of the canyon with the giant Texas flag flowing behind him with the music up loud... breath taking, even for an Arkie. I'm sure if I were a native Texan I would have cried.
Route 66: You can still get your kicks there!Buddy Holly International Airport in Lubbock: I love irony and it's kind of ironic to name the city's airport after someone who died in a plane crash. (I honestly mean no disrespect.)
Uncle Julio's: The BEST fajitas I've ever had.
Whataburger: Best place to get a burger at 3:00am.

Okay... I'll add to this...
San Antonio - the elevator in the Tower Life building. It moves FAST!
The view from the top of the Tower of Americas - which is over 500 feet up (is that my house I see waaaay over there?)
Blanco - The Bowling Alley Cafe - a great place to eat breakfast, and listen to the locals
Bandera - the Super S store is a hoot to shop in
Medina Lake - my small lot - and the area around it is awesome - the lake is pleasant to look at
Hwy 281 North - from San Antonio to Marble Falls - a great drive in the springtime (or anytime)
Hwy 1431 - from Marble Falls to Austin - another windy-twisty road that is awesome to drive... but not too fast, or you'll go off the road.
Park Road 4 - just north of Marble Falls - a true roller coaster of a drive - best driven at 70mph - just hold on tight to the steering wheel
The Wal-Mart in Marble Falls - well... you'd just have to be there - to understand that one
The Candle Factory in Georgetown - just north of Austin on IH-35 - they have the best candles I have ever seen
The San Gabriel River in Georgetown - a nice place to picnic and watch people - and ducks
San Marcos - a great place to swim and shop (Paper Bear's) and just hang out in - the folks are really nice there
many many other places... mostly along the roads as I drive... that make me smile
Regards,
Jim TX

Hey! I was there last spring........it was nice, I guess.....maybe I am missing something....Is there something extra special about that Wal-Mart?
Do ya live in Marble Falls, Jim?

Marble Falls is one of the prettest towns I've ever been through. The lake and bridge on entering the town is almost surreal to me. I'd move there in a heart beat.

That's what I'm planning to do!
