Some parts. There's a lot of different places in Texas, we have huge cities, modern towns, not so modern towns, predominantly Mexican areas which range from nice places to chill at, to "roll up the windows and let's gtfo of here", then there's the wilderness. We have lakes, rivers, mountains, woods, marshlands, and desert. If you like to hunt, we do that. If you like to hike, got it. If you like to just chill, and drink in the shade, check. The highways in some parts suck, especially in El Paso, and Houston. The 610 loop can blow me. We also have all kinds of different people, and no, we don't all wear those damned hats and boots. It's usually the posers, gays, and Mexicans who wear those, in the regions I've lived in, at least.
