My family on my father's side is from Texas. Mostly living in Dallas, and my family has a ranch out in Boyd. My father was born in Dallas, but spent most of his career (22 years, I believe) in the military. He is now a Methodist pastor in Sanger, and him and my mother live in Krum. I was actually born in Manhattan...Kansas, where my father was attending vet school at KSU. My dad was stationed in NC and DC while I was growing up....but he moved back to TX my senior year in HS (in Maryland). Anyway, got in some trouble my freshmen year (sound familiar???) at a private school in PA (followed my girlfriend ), and then transfered to NT as "my only option" from my parents. It was ok...GREAT school, GREAT education, and lots of great memories. I live in Raleigh, NC now but will be bringing my kids down to see their grandparents Thanksgiving week. We are planning on going to the FAU game, and possibly the Tulsa (BB) game. Actually, I will be watching the mens BB team tomorrow against UNC-Charlotte...will have to let everyone know how it goes. OK, sorry. That was probably my longest post, but the topic intrigued me. Thanks!
