I just found your blog and I love it! I also just moved to Texas and was quite amused by your list as I have lived in 3 different states in the past year (MN, FL and now TX) and I have giggled over the differences in each place. I’m very excited to learn more about Texas! Thanks for sharing

This is sooo true!!!! hahaha
I live North of Houston now, but am from OHIO!!! And my goodness, Texas is like a whole different world!! ;o)
I too have lived in many places VT, CO, ND and Guam!! But TX by far is one in a million!!! We have lived here for almost 3yrs, and everyday is drastically different from the last. And you are right, TX does not have “true” season changes….but after the SNOW yesterday i may challenge that one!!! Hahaha~

I am a Californian living in N Texas too Your list made me laugh – those were all new to me too! Actually in the first few days we lived here we looked out to see our neighbor across the street with a dead deer hung up from his garage rafters. apparently he’d been hunting. Major culture shock!!!! But we love TX

Some people tell me that Texas does not have a true change in seasons, but for me, after only living in California and Hawaii, I definitely feel the change! It is really hot here today, too. Thanks so much for reading and commenting, I appreciate it!

I grew up in Northern Minnesota. That is what I consider true change of seasons. Not been to Northern Texas so do not know what it is like there. Spent 3 years in Southern California ( San Diego area) . Fantastic weather , pricy living . Now in Texas for a little over a month. Hot really Hot and not summer yet, hear about people carry guns more. Not sure I care for that. Don’t care what gun people say still don’t like the idea. So far think people in California more courteous to pedestrians than I have seen in Minnesota or Texas. But here we are in Texas for now. Was born in Texas. Once a Texan always a Texan they say. Love your blog site.

Awww…your post made me a little homesick. I’m from Texas but have lived in California north of Santa Barbara for 7 years now. What would I be called…a Califexan??? I do miss some of those things, especially my family, but I have my husband and children here. Thanks for bringing a little bit of home to me. By the way, I love your blog!
