- Believe it or not, it really is pretty out here. It’s a different kind of natural beauty, for sure; but the skies are so gigantic!
- The wind blows almost constantly. I don’t know if it’s because there are no trees or because we are over 3k feet above sea level.
- Apparently trash is picked up behind my house in the alley. After letting bags pile in the garage for 6 days waiting to see when my neighbors put their garbage by the street; I finally figured there might be something different going on.
- I’ve been in Lubbock for 10 days total in my entire life, and it’s rained for almost 5 days of my time here. The locals tell me this is unusual.
- Prairie dog towns are interesting for about 5 minutes. For 4 year olds it tops off at 3 minutes.
- It’s been a long time since I’ve lived somewhere that is so easy to get around in. For those friends in Dallas, they will understand.
- When they don’t have your size at Old Navy, don’t ask where the next closest store is. Because it’s not within 250 miles. Man, I got spoiled living in the DFW metroplex!
- It’s really dusty here in Lubbock. I’m gonna be buying q-tips on a much more frequent basis, if you know what I mean…
- And finally, the water. The water is BAD! I mean really bad. My kids cry if I try and make them drink tap water. I can’t even sneak it past them!
