Some of my best memories are of the swim holes we'd stop at. Beautiful pics. Joe

I was the same way, Joe. I pictured all of Texas to be like El Paso until I traveled around here a bit. Tidbits that amazed me at first:

- Beaumont, TX is closer to ST. Augustine, FL than El Paso, TX

I KNOW that you found that out already!
