It’s too far away from any oceans, no real taking part in sea rise…boring.
But, surrounded by lots and lots of fresh water…no sharks…makes Shark Week look like a fantasy.
So many trees in places you can’t even see the horizon…what’s up with that?
Split up into 2 pieces … WHAT???
Big cities are all in the bottom of the state leaving tamed wildernesses in the rest of the state…inconvenient.
No earthquakes…well about as bad as a quarter- driven motel bed. Never shakes things up.
It’s COLD, warm, COLD, hot, COLD, warm.

Only kidding…beautiful place to be. My late BIL lived in Dallas could hardly wait to come back…waited too long.
