THE REAL TEXAS
Look at Texas for just a second.
That picture, with the Panhandle and the Gulf Coast, and the Red River and the Rio Grande is as much a part of every Texan as anything ever will be. As soon as anyone looks at it, they know what it is. It’s Texas. Pick anyone off the street in just about any country and draw them a picture of Texas, and they’ll know exactly what it is. No other US state can stir up feelings like Texas does. The mythical images, drummed up in the minds of most people on this planet, about Texas never really seem as large as the real history behind the men, women places of Texas. There will always be a little bit of Texas in everyone.
