Buck - ees of Texas

I miss traveling through Texas. Considered buying a house and moving there, but decided to stay in North Carolina.
On my last trip, driving an 18 wheeler, I decided to borrow a Don't Mess With Texas road sign. Middle of the night, not much traffic what can go wrong. I removed one bolt and was busy on the other one when flashing lights were behind me. The officer ask if everything was ok and what was I doing. Told him I had to much ice tea and had to stop. Drove off with the sign hanging on with one bolt. Ran over and crushed my little tool box. He followed me from Houston to Beaumont before turning off the highway.
I still miss Texas!
You do realize that by trying to take a Texas roadside sign you were in essence, " Messing with Texas"???

One of the most "stolen" signs in Texas is the sign at Luckenbach, Texas where Willy Nelson used to hang out and play the guitar with his buddies. The town is so small it doesn't even have one horse but it's pretty cool and a destination for many tourists. Unfortunately most people can't find the town because the sign is usually not there and if you don't know where to turn off the highway you'll never find Luckenbach. The town mostly consists of this large building (bar) and a few out building, not much there, just a place to party and smoke dope (Willy) where the cops can't find you. Willy made the mistake of mentioning Luchenbach in one of his songs and ever since then it's been a tourist attraction which made it a place he had to avoid (for the most part).
