Texas, the Journey Begins

Aloha,

It's official, we just sold our home and are now in Escrow.

If all goes as planned, we hope to be in Llano, Texas by the end of July.

We will be renting a place until we can find acreage large enough for a private shooting range.

So if any one knows of land that fills our expectations,

Please let us know, Thank You.

Good to hear. I love the Llano/Fredericksburg area. A very rugged beauty in that part of the Hill Country. Good luck to y'all and welcome to Texas.

Success always occurs in private, and failure in full view.

Complacency sucks…

Congrats!

We are in a similar situation; we sold our home and temporarily living in a small apartment two towns over until we finish some work shit this summer and in the meantime, we're looking. Just got a realtor based on a friends rec. Concentrating on the Keller/Southlake area of DFW. My wife and I are excited...

Nice. I really like that area. My friend Mark used to have some land in San Saba but moved to Richland Springs.

I have a good friend who just bought a home on the Big Island, will sell one of his two homes in Silicon Valley, will retire, and "commute".

Hawaii is nice but for full time living I'd be voting TX also.

Good luck with the long distance move, welcome to(back?) to the mainland.

When I first read your post I thought you spelled Plano wrong! My mistake, I've never heard of Llano, although I've only been to 3 cities in Texas. Congrats on the move!

Congrats!

You'll love it here. Alas, I'm only a TX homeowner through 6/26, then on to MS full time...
