TEXAS

more:  usa
Texas holds the distinction of being the only country that then became a state...and believe me Texans know this.  I watched a video of the state's history in Austin and the video bordered on indoctrination vs. information.

That said I like Texas.  The state has a bravado and walks the talk to back up their claims (unlike all the other southern states - which is why in spirit I think Texas is southwest not south). 

Dallas.  San Antonio.  Austin.  Amazing.  Houston traffic.  Ugh.

Beyond the big cities Texas some great small towns:
  • 14 Tiny Texas Towns
  • 15 Small Texas Towns

Amarillo
​

Amarillo is home to two sites: The Big Texan Steakhouse and The Cadillac Ranch. Both are must stops while traveling along I-40. A mile down from The Cadillac Ranch is the Second Amendment Cowboy.
