I moved to Texas in '03 to get my freedom back. I was born and raised in southern California, then spent a few years in Iowa. My family moved back to SoCal in '71. I was a contractor there for a bunch of years, then packed up and moved to Texas to be closer to my eldest daughter and escape the housing crash which I could see coming. I was also sick of the state sticking their noses into every aspect of my life and business. My daughter moved to Nebraska several years ago, but I ended up starting a new family here and I'll spend the rest of my days in Texas. There's no place I'd rather be!
