Deep in the Heart of Texas
I commonly refer to myself as a misplaced texan. You see I was born, raised and lived in the Lone Star State for 25 years before moving out. Travis and I originally left for the Rocky Mountains in Colorado before ending up in California. No matter how long I've been gone (5 years) I still [...]
