I miss you, Texas.

While there is absolutely nothing wrong with Utah, I really left a piece of my heart in Texas. There is just something about that place. I was going through some old photos the other day and just had to stop and look a little while. Pay a little homage. Reminisce. I really miss that place.

I miss the mild winters.

I miss the deep blue skies that never seem to end.

I miss the wide open spaces.

I miss the circular hay bales that dot the countryside.

I miss the pecan trees.

I miss bluebonnets.

I miss fried pickles.

I miss the abundant ponds and lakes.

I miss the no sales tax on groceries!

I miss Texas pride.

I miss the Dairy Queen slogan, "That's what I like about Texas!"

I miss Central Market, and the huge Whole Foods store.

I miss the culture, and the southern hospitality.

I miss all of those lovely trees.

I miss real BBQ.

I miss you Texas, I miss you so much.

Can't wait to come and visit you this summer!
