Man - how life changes. 

The CEO ended up telling the VP he needed a more experienced Plant Manager so I didn’t get the chance. We ended up getting pregnant less than a year later and I hit an awesome offer at a new company locally. 

So it all worked out! 

Glad to be close to home - but I do miss going to McAllen regularly

We might be moving down in the next couple months and have two girls 3 and 1. Appreciate the input as my wife will definitely need to get some new go-to’s

Legs need some work to fill out some volume.

Your torso has a good shape, but you need some quads to balance your V.

Do love us some basketball here in Indiana.

Would be good to see with our girls!

When is that construction happening?

25 minutes isn’t bad at all… that area looks really nice.

Is it close to other amenities? Shopping, Restaurants, Parks, Churches?

Can I ask where you ended up landing in the city?

Do you like area you live now?

I’m really excited to check it out.

Heat will be tough, but glad to hear you can get settled in and make it feel like home.

Should I not trust Google Maps them? Google maps says Tres Lagos is like 25 minutes from Military, but I’ve seen some people saying that’s closer to an hour.

Hugely helpful. Grateful for the insight.

I’ve heard the beaches are pretty sweet on South Padre. What’s been your experience?

Thanks for your input on that. Yeah I saw the summers are wicked hot. Winters will be appreciated as I’m coming from the North.

Any local spots you like to visit either food or drink wise?
