There is alot to do in Texas, and Texas also has alot of history
It gets VERY hot here though, I would say that is the thing that I HATE the most. I know it is hot in alot of places, but it is very HUMID here...which means that it always feels much hotter than it actually is. Usually 90 degrees will feel like 110
As for the houses, yes of course there are gorgeous homes here
I mean of course it would depend on the price range you are looking at and of course the neighborhood
Where in Texas will he be buying you a home? East Texas is really nice - alot prettier than the South lol. It just all depends on where you are going
