Considering relocating to Texas

Did you find all that ethnic and cultural diversity you were wanting? Khalid

Lol, actually surprisingly yes I did. Statistically Augusta is 54% black and it's pretty apparent, I need to go around and introduce myself but I've noticed all of my next-door neighbors are black which is a refreshing change. Not that it makes any real difference overall, people are people anyway you have good and bad in any race or ethnicity it just makes things interesting. Also the mosque in Augusta is wayyy bigger than I expected for a not-so-large city in the south, apparently established in 1975 and supposedly not the only one in the area either.

Glad you lke my old home state of Ga. You know you will have "arrived" when you develop a taste for boiled peanuts, cheezy grits, and non taxed alcohol! Do you hear banjos at late nite????

I already loved cheese grits before I moved out here lol, got a bit into smoking meats (brisket/chuck roasts, chicken, turkey) and needed an "authentic" side dish. Reminds me I need to go buy my own pellet grill/smoker I'm jonesing for homemade brisket. Boiled peanuts are pretty tasty too, I don't drink though I'll take your word on the alcohol lol :thumbsup:

I don't hear banjos around these parts at night but this past weekend during the afternoon I did hear gunshots, not like a crime scene lol but like a nearby shooting range or people plinking in their back yards. I got my handguns out here but still need to get my CETME rifle and shotgun from CO and hit the range.
