Wow, 38 yrs then you move to NY? I bet you miss Houston.
Personally I spent ~10 yrs in Dallas TX...I hated it. I hate Houston more, I feel bad for anyone
that has to live in that hellhole.
Once I moved west into the Rockies and beyond I was hooked...no more flat land and desert for me again.
Anyhow, I dont want to steal your thread I just cannot believe anyone would want to live there.
