    Anyone visit hometown and realize they should have moved away sooner.

    Slushy dirty snow and dust everywhere. Cars covered in salt and grit. Smoggy with crazy traffic. Everything covered in grime. What a dump!

    What else? Crazy high prices, lazy rednecks, nothing to do, f'ing cold, drinking culture, slippery roads and footpaths.

    I'm back in new hometown and what a difference. Clean and beautiful. Courteous drivers. Less crowded roads. Runable year-round. Healthy people.

    What else? It'll take a month to recover from the training damage down from this trip.

    Amazing what moving can do and respect to those that train in crappy cities like this one.

    why do you like this thread then? When I think of Texas, I do think of snow and miserable weather. No sarcasm. What they cancel the Dallas marathon every other year because of ice?

    I agree Democrat policies (Marxism, Socialism, veiled Commie ideas) destroy cities.

    The only livable city in Texas promotes itself as "not really like being in Texas."

    Has to be Boston. You sound like the typical snob who moved away from Boston & now lives in Virginia or North Carolina.

    Canada is the 'great white north,' but their thanksgiving is in October. Maybe he or she lives in the U.S. Now and went home to Canada while off work. I have no idea what the Canadian equivalent of Texas is? Manitoba? Saskatchewan?
