Ah. Well, If I were going to be painted with a broad brush, I would rather be painted as a Texan rather than a NorthEasterner, that much I readily admit to.

But there are conservatives up here behind enemy lines.

I am a she born in Texas and raised in California. Texan parents are who taught me not to broad brush.

Well bless your heart.

Thanks for informing me of how tough it is to be a farmer. I wouldn’t have known otherwise. Oh, wait, yes I was raised on a farm with peach, pear, plums, persimmon, and pecan trees, peanuts and cattle that were all sold at market. We had chickens and a garden for home use. I still have a garden and pecan for home use and had to replant the garden last spring three and four times which you can verify on the FR weekly garden thread.
