Usually it's muggy as hell.
Meh... it's been 95 degrees for a couple of weeks now... no rain... high friggin' humidity. I live about 2 miles from a reservoir, and 30 miles from the Louisiana/Texas border. Grew up during these summers as a kid... it'll reach 110 (or close to it) before summer is over.
Texas is great for those that love it... it tends to scare off or damn-near kill those that don't. I've seen a lot of guys from Cali try the whole "well I live in SoCal, so this is no biggie" mentality... only to realize, you will get a heat stroke, because you're burning up and the humidity makes it difficult to sweat.
Now that I think about it... I don't want anyone coming to Texas... I want the space more than company... ![drunk](images/smilies/big/drunk.gif)
Though personally, I wouldn't mind spending a week or so in Canada... especially to go hunting...
"The weakest soul, knowing its own weakness, and believing this truth that strength can only be developed by effort and practice, will, thus believing, at once begin to exert itself, and, adding effort to effort, patience to patience, and strength to strength, will never cease to develop, and will at last grow divinely strong."
