born and raised in texas and there are many beautiful places in that great state. last 30 years been trying to cover all the rockies in colorado but never will. i have traveled some to the northwest and lot in the southeast. i have come to the conclusion that we are very lucky indeed, to have been graced by god, to have been born in such a beautifull country. above all else, no matter where you live in this nation, we are indeed blessed to have the freedom we all enjoy.
