Just moved from NC to TX

[beebopcop]

Just moved to the Big state of Texas. NC's weather is too cold this time of year.... so I moved to south Texas. The hunting is better and more varied too.

Hate you had to leave NC but welcome anyway.

Hi All
Thanks for the welcome. I am about 15 miles south of San Antonio in Von Ormy. Nice little quiet place to stay. Outside of the big city. Any one know where I can hunt some pigs around here???

It's nice that you guys are giving him such a "warm" welcome.

I mentioned to Rusty today that this past summer I stepped off the plane at Midland/Odessa and it was 106 with a 30MPH wind. Now that will dry you out!

The next time I went Odessa they got their annual rainfall while I was there. Had to buy one of those cool yellow duster raincoats at the feed & seed store. Wonder what I did with that thing?

You call em rain coats, we call em dust coats. Blocks the sand from chaffing your skin.

Welcome to Texas Hogslayer! If you don't enjoy cold weather you should be thrilled when August gets here.

You have not had fun until it is 95 degrees and raining sideways.

Question....in SW Texas, why are the fence posts made out of little sticks and there are hundreds of abandoned power poles every mile of open road? Anybody ever thot about pulling up the abandoned poles and using them for posts? You know those old glass insulators on them? You can get a couple of bucks a piece for them in this area. Rusty, you could get filthy rich!

And I am sure that the company that owns the Poles would come get you. And I promise, more then likely they are owned by the Texas Railroad Commission.

Not sure if you have ever build fence, but the small the post, the smaller the hole you have to dig. Know what I mean?

[lazer128]

Yeah. No trees in West Texas, unless you count Pump Jacks, and fence posts.

Howdy, Hogslayer! Well, just as you can't take the country out of the boy, so also you can't take the Carolina out of him either, because XColony is filled with both Carolinians and Texans. It's like an albatross around the neck...There's no escape!

;) :D
