Belfrybat - mid 30's is cold for your area - I was born in Abilene - we lived in an oil camp out of Baird - but my dad's family was centered around Abilene. We later moved to the oilfield area around Andrews - I still feel Texan - even though we have lived elsewhere for a really long time - I miss so many Texas things.
I see that there are several Texas people in this swap - One lives near my sister who lives in Jourdanton and teaches in Pleasanton. I love the SA area -
