LOL, JW ... TX mileage:

Houston => Austin: roughly 150 miles.

Austin => Dallas: roughly 185-200.

Houston=> Galveston: 90 miles

Austin => San Antonio: 75 miles

Austin => Laredo: 250 miles or so (5 hour drive)

Austin => Corpus Christi: Same as Laredo above.

They don't call it "Central Texas" for nuthin'.

Now, if you wanna go to El Paso, that's ONE HELLUVA long drive ... passing through some fascinating terrain ... different than any place I've ever been ...

That would be on the way from Austin to Albuquerque, perhaps to see the famous 'el' and 'el's girl.'

(When you come from the east on I-10, you enter TX from LA at Orange. The first mile marker reads "893," meaning it's 893 miles to El Paso, where I-10 leaves the state. Big state, indeed.)

Good to see ya!

And, 'come on down!' PS: Weather 'cools off' a little bit anyway generally mid-late Oct ... Nov for sure. Still VERY MILD even then ... PPS you do any fishing? Salt-water? The reds 'run' on Texas Coast in Sept ... I can check that out more specifically ... I went coupla years ago ... San Luis Pass ... guy I was with caught 300-lb sting ray ... took hours ... these friends of mine go all the time ... various locations along TX coast.
