I made my second visit to Texas this past weekend, a trip to to the state capital, Austin. I was in Plano earlier this year, and I have a short Houston stay scheduled for October. With this post, I present a few thoughts regarding the Lone Star state as they are still fresh in my head.
Highways: The road system in the big Texas cities are wide and numerous. It seems that it is a southern characteristic to have extremely spread out areas of suburban civilization surrounding a metropolitan center. In the case of Texas, this means big highways - everywhere.
Food: BBQ or Mexican, take your pick. It's all very authentic and quite delicious. You basically need to leave the state to get any other cuisine that isn't a national brand.
That's really all I have right now. Apparently my trip to Texas involved a lot of driving and eating, which isn't that far from the truth.
