So, you are getting aquointed with C.R. drivers. Whenever I see a Linn co. plate on a car, I stay away from them. They seem to be in their own little world. Guess that I will have to be aware if that plate is on a red PSD....

Oh man, you're preaching to the choir.

My beef is, no one just drives "normal". Very few people around here drive the speed limit. There are two types of drivers.

1) the retard who pulls out in front of you and forces you to slam on your brakes (happened to me 3 times the past 24 hours) and then goes 10 or 15 MPH under the speed limit. In their own little world is right.

or 2) you have the psychos who want to do 100 mph everywhere, and they are extremely aggressive. Lady in the minivan was a perfect example. When all I can see is the very top of your minivan, you are way too close.

And you're right, once you get out of city limits everyone seems to calm down a bit and drive like a human being.

I keep thinking with houses like that, for that cheap down in the states, I should be buying one somewhere, and have it for a vacation house. Just needs to be near a lake, and warm in the winter haha.
All of the houses we are loking at are right on Lake Conroe. That's one of the things we want. If we cannot get close to the lake then we want the other extreme, which is as far out into the country as we can get.

I'm going to put up a couple of the $300k ones from around here. Y'all will be amazed.

Yes, it's above the flood plain. We are looking for houses on the northern end of Lake Conroe. It's all good up on this end. The house we have now is here also but not as nice as the ones we are looking at.

It is! We are having fun with it. We were in the Bentwater subdivision this morning. Bentwater is BIG money, lots of multi-million dollar homes in there. We took a look at one of Beyoce Knowles' homes....very nice.

Going to go and take a look at this one now:
