Actually the enchanted circle northeast ot Taos, NM is an area we both
really liked. But we were there in July. I want to make a trip there
in the winter to see if I'm still as impressed. On my last walkabout
I spent some time roaming around Texas. Sure liked the area west of
Houston. So did the people living there. They must be mighty proud
of what they have considering the asking prices.

There's good bets, safe bets, and guaranteed sure things. Guess

It wasn't high desert. Just beautiful rolling green low hills. I was
on I-10 On reflection I think I was in San Antonio. San Antonio is
closer to the Sierra Madres. Houston is close to the gulf coast
right?

I would like to congratulate you on your move and wish you all the
best. I do not know much about that area so I cannot give you any
information on the rain and the climate. However, I can tell you that
when you are thinking of decorating your new home, visit
www.sagansons.com for ideas. I went by the site the other day and
found so many things to decorate a new house.

I wish that you enjoy your move and your decorations.
