“Houston is the Blanche Dubois of Texas. Once praised for its beauty, food, science, entertainment and bigger than life people, it now exists in the recesses of dark memories and failing dreams, growing old and feeble.”
I agree. I lived the area from ‘76-’96 and saw it progress as you describe. Visits to relatives in past few years confirm that the disintegration continues.
You mean Texas isn’t really larger than life any longer?
