If you're moving from New Jersey to Amarillo, Texas...you may as well be moving to Mars. I can't imagine two places being more dis-similar.

Thanks for the feedback. I drove a tractor trailer through Texas quite a few times, and the southern border with Mexico looks like Mars. The North was green (alfafa?) and in the east everybody is like Sheriff Justice from Smokey and the bandit.
I'm exploring several options, Amarillo is just one of the them. I like Raleigh NC and Knoxville TN as well.

I don't think I can eat the whole thing, but I'll give it a try.
