Every now and then my thoughts wander off to Texas…
I think about how things would have been had we chosen a different path in life…my kids would have made great country bumpkins…
I think of ranches where you never see the main house from the main gates because the ranches are so big you have to drive miles past the front gate in order to see the homestead..
I think of livestock, some wild and untamed…
I think of Pappadeaux’s Seafood Kitchen in Dallas..and eating alligator there for the first time in my life…
I think of Texas wildflowers…
But mostly when I think of Texas, I think of family…it’s the one part about living overseas you never get comfortable with- being so far away from the ones you love, especially under difficult times..
Happy Trails to you my friends….
