It’s ok really. I mean, it’s not a bad place. It’s just like a Texas town within a town, only there’s like tanks and stuff and people walk around in uniform.

Killeen is only worth visiting if there’s someone you love there. In my case, there was. But it’s not somewhere I would just take a day trip to.

One of the best cities I’ve been to. Ok, maybe I’m a little biased. But it’s a great place to live.

It’s been a long time. Going here was the first time I had ever been outside the United States. I remember the water reminded me a lot of beer (given that it was on the other side of Mexico) washing up on the shore. I came home with about a pound of sand dollars, a sunburn, and wonderful memories.

I went to Destin the summer that I was 14. Aside from the constant humidity and rain, it was unlike any other place I’ve ever been. The sand was white and at times reminded me of walking around in a giant ashtray. I met a guy named Tim who was also from Texas (albeit 400 miles away in Texas) and we hung out all week. We left when we got the news that my step-sisters’ grandfather had passed away. Saying goodbye to Tim was hard and I thought for sure I’d never forget him. Two months later I met a guy at my high school and that’s all that was ever written about a week-long summer fling.

Ok, so I’ve only been once. And being allergic to the cold, it was difficult to have a perfect time. But I still had a lot of fun learning how to ski, and there’s something about the atmosphere of Colorado that I find difficult to describe. I don’t think I could ever live there, because the beauty of the landscape is so incredible that if I saw it every day, maybe I would stop caring after a while. And I certainly wouldn’t want to do that.

My dad lives here. The last time I saw him was at Christmas of 2004. Duluth is more than just a pretty town on Lake Superior. In a lot of ways, it feels like a home. Friendly people, peaceful setting, splendid scenery.

Go to 6th street. It’s a somewhat typical party crowd, but more relaxed than any other bar scene I’ve ever been to.

Easily the most scenic trip I’ve ever been on. By far and away.

If you get on Hwy 1 going south from Monterrey, about 40 to 50 miles on the right is a turn off for a secluded beach. There’s private houses back there and the access road is TERRIBLE (not recommending trucks, vans, SUVs or anything other than mini-compact vehicles) but the view is absolutely breathtaking. So worth it!
