I live (North of you) in Paige. Off of 21. I love living in the "Lost Pines" - except for all the pollen in the air right now. Everyone here (on Stovebolt.com) will want to see pictures of your new buy, so take LOTS of pictures. Write up a story(length doesn't matter) and submit it to the editor(Peggy) along with several pics.(file size doesn't matter to her - high resolution OK). She will look it over, and include a few of the pics with your story in the Gallery section. Don't be afraid to ask ANY questions here. Chances are that someone will be able to help you. Any photos that you want in a posting will need to be from another site(no pics in posts)- you will need to include a LINK TO THE PICS in your post.(a list of sites is at the top of the I.T. Short Bus section)

Welcome from a Texas traveler! I think that there is another guy besided 54Tow that lives right in your area as well, and I get through there often as I am a hot-shot driver out of central Texas... (actually stay in Converse most of the time)
