Exactly. They are looking at numbers only. I’ll make a Texas high school comparison. This is like taking a transfer RGV QB with big numbers and assuming he’s going to the same in the Duncanville, Galena Park or Westlake district. Competition matters.
I got one of those Strawberry Mineral Waters chilling in the fridge. It must be popular because the 12 packs were sold out while there was plenty of the other flavors in stock.
Very nice. It will be interesting to see how much of that is going to actually make it down to Lake CC and Choke Canyon. The Nueces had some dry areas the more south it goes.
Same here. A normally 3 hour float took about 30 mins. Won’t dare do that now as a 53 year olds….. I was up there in 1987 when the floods that made the national news on the Guadalupe dumped the same amounts of rains in the headwaters of the Frio. It’s amazing what a matter of miles can do with rivers up there from being in flood stage to a trickle during these rain events.
Times have changed……. Things that encourage us to stay indoors and home have altered a lot of stuff. I see this even in my own neighborhood in a Burb like area in the twenty years we have lived vs when we built our home. We’ve had so many people move in and out on our street I might know a handful of people who have been here for the long term as well. When we first moved here we had neighborhood gatherings, etc and nothing now. Football fridays we’d have a nearly sold out stadium, now a lot of empty seats. In the small town I grew up in which I visited over the weekend, it’s the same dynamic but more so because the younger generations starting with mine (Gen X) moved away and didn’t come back in large numbers after college, etc.
Funny thing is the community barely recognized him with a tribute just in the last year or two. They kind of shunned him when Manziel wanted Manziel and some other things came out about his move to Kerrville.
Kerrville used to be retirement destination number one when I was growing up for folks from the RGV. Seemed like every business folk my parents knew after they sold their business or put in their notice after 30 years of service was moving to Kerrville or Fredericksburg. This was back in the 80’s.
The direction San Antonio is growing it might become more like what Boerne was 20 years ago where folks who wanted to live away from the city but still wanted the small town feel end up. Kind of like Dripping Springs in the Austin area where not too long ago it was out in the sticks. Now the Austin metro area is clearing a lot of those sticks and merging up with Dripping Springs.
