In Delaware, no matter where you drive, you see something...like a farm or houses, or the ocean.

There are places in Texas where you can drive and see nothing on either side of the road you are driving on. I guess it's not really "nothing" per se, but there is no human development.

Which part? What do you enjoy most about it here?

Maybe he was referring to West Texas.

Many of which, of course, come with rice and beans.

The absolute MOST fun I have ever had (with clothes on) in my life was floating the river in New Braunfels. It was AMAZING. I hope to bring my daughter back to do that someday.

I hear the police watch more closely and you can get in trouble for being drunk. That was part of the fun. We had a center tube with an ice chest in the middle, we tied on all around. Good times!!

People can enjoy snakes being drunk. Try it sober; you may find it's just as much fun.

I love the Dallas area, got a buddy in Grand Prairie. You can see the skyline from the end of his road. I'm not a city girl so I like visiting the hustle and bustle once in a while. Oh, love Grape Vine Mills Mall too...way too much

I love San Antonio with all the history and the gorgeous River Walk. It's so romantic riding those boats on a stary night.

Haven't visited but want to go to y'all's beaches. I live 11 miles from the Atlantic here.

I had heard so many times that Wink was the hottest place in the states...temperature. So we visited. Not much there but I still loved the heat.

Haven't gone to Big Bend but it's on my list of things to do.

I guess all in all, your state has everything. Mountains, coastline, prairies, cities, small towns. Hey, there is even a town named after me...Dawn.

Thanks for asking. I know that people moving to Delaware are wide eyed about it. I've lived here 49 years, meh. I do love the ocean, have always been a beach bum but I also love travelling to the mountains. Delaware is flatlanders territory, have to go to western MD to see any mountains.
