Sandi,
I hear's ya.  But I married me a Houston girl with a big fambly, and she
loves it here.  ...sigh...

I explicitly chose to take up kayaking in the hopes that it would be
something that wouldn't be quite as miserable as most of the other outdoor
recreational options available in this area (and I can't quite sink so low
as to jet ski).  Being on the water is a big plus.  I used to windsurf, but
gave it up after I moved from Clear Lake TX (near the bay) to Katy TX (far
from the bay) because I fell below "critical mass" with it.  So I sold my
sailboards and gear and bought this old kayak.  So far, so good, at least
there are no motors in a kayak.

Texas Tommy
