So I'm originally from Texas joined the Marine Corps boot camp,MCT, and both duty stations in California. 10 years in California, that's pretty much all my boys know up until my we moved to Ohio(which sucked...sorry for anyone who is from Ohio) and now CT. But we are looking to move either to Texas or Cali. I'm torn I love Texas but love what Cali has to offer, from offroading in the desert,snowboarding ,hiking,camping and all the kids friendly attractions. Texas is well Texas we go back forth so any advice would be great?

Sgt Adrian Jones .Every time I move away from Texas. I always end up moving back ! I am staying in Texas......Texas has quite a bit to offer, from it's gulf shore beaches, rolling prairies and lakes, piney woods of east Texas, the fort trails, fishing, camping, boating and hunting....... Tex mex food, BBQ, and chicken fried steak ! Of course I can go on and on about Texas.... Because I always moved back !

Our last duty station was Fort Irwin near the town of Barstow, California. On 4 days we would travel to San Diego, San Francisco, Bakersfield area, and then up North around Yosemite area. California is beautiful but it is not Texas. We now live east of San Antonio in a small rural area. The beach is 2 hrs from my front door. The Guadeloupe River is 1 hr. Texas has some great fly fishing waters and the trout are fat. Tubing down the river just opened this week. Wineries are close by and the brisket is always ready. We compared Texas to several other states and the cost comparisons always favored Texas. If we had a pool I don't think I'd leave my house at all. Amazon and HEB deliver to the front door. Best of luck in your decision.
