Travel Tips

Well, as General Sheridan once said, "If I owned Texas and hell, I'd rent out Texas and live in hell"

I find the weather bi-polar. Not too much snow.
It can get realllly hot, like even going though the Walmart parking lot causes you to sweat. Needless to say, parking spaces are valued by shade, not by closeness.

Drivers can be wild, but aren't they like that anywhere??

Let's see...during the summer there may be afternoon showers. Plenty to do if you live in Houston, Dallas, Austin or San Antonio. Other than that sometimes it's more like a dry hole. The soil is very clay-ey, very tan-like.

Weeds love it here, cacti love it here, oaks and pine trees love it here too. I don't see many different trees. Often, it's either oak or pine.

The major highways are I-10 and I-45, among others.

Really, you either like it or you hate it. If you get bored, you will hate it. Bring something with you, either a family member or games.

And no, it's not all completely flat! Some places in Texas actually have rolling hills and some have mountains, although they won't be setting any height records!

And no, we're not all strange. We're people. We just sometimes say howdy or ya'll. You probably won't encounter someone saying howdy but you will encounter someone saying ya'll for sure. Source(s): Southeast Texan

Texas IS heaven and hell all rolled into one. It will be hotter than hell, but the people will be nice, smiling, and as helpful as can be.
lived it
completely flat
It's gonna be hot than a muther ****** this summer!! Temps reaching in the 105F with high humidity... North texas weather varies from day to day, but overall it should be ok. You spend most of your time indoors anyways. I live in Dallas (about 25 miles from Rockwall). You'll be close to lake Ray Hubbard, so expect to go there to cool off on your days off...
check out cajun catfish restaurant in Rockwall if you like catfish, it's awesome. TEXAS RULES!!! But be prepared to be HOT.
