howdy @squirrelbait yeah I can see why Iowa would be boring for you.
My wife and I moved to TX 2.5 yrs ago from Ohio but I grew up on a farm out by Dodge City, KS
so the culture is similar to KS. Alot of people can't handle the heat here though, today it's
getting to 100. Three months of brutal heat but then the rest of the year is heaven as far
as weather, in my opinion. So yes I think you'd like it here if the heat didn't get to you.

there's a gun shop on every other corner and a donut shop on the other!
very much gun culture where we are, we hear gunfire everyday.
