Here I am in Baytown, Texas.

July 13, 2009 |  by Susan  |  All Posts, RV life

I will be honest and say that living in TX was something I never wanted to do. I don’t have anything specific against TX or people who live here. There are just other states further up on my list of places I would prefer to live. But, if I must live in certain places there are certain requirements I have, to make it much more pleasurable. So if I am going to live in TX, because of dh’s work, then I was determined to live some place on the coast.

So here I am, living in Baytown, TX (about a half hour from Houston). It is surrounded by water (Galveston Bay) on three sides. The Bay is right out our back door here at the nice RV park we are staying at. Now I just need to convince dh to stay here for our whole time here and not move to a place closer to where he may work.

The best part about being here is, the breeze. TX is hot and humid and pretty much miserable inland. I like heat but this humidity is killing me. By the bay there is a constant breeze. It is still ungodly hot, but the breeze takes a bit of the edge off.

    Awww . . . you make me miss home. I was born and raised in and around Houston. I lived most of my life in La Porte (neighbor to Baytown), and then many years in Galveston. I have only lived in Arkansas since 2005, other than living here in AR since 2005, I have only ever lived in La Porte, Texas and Galveston, Texas. :o )

    I live in Houston for 5 years when I was little. Too hot for me. I remember enjoying Galveston when I was a kid though!
