Good try; but, no part of TX is north of OK state line. The panhandle is west of it.
Anyway, in Lubbock, you'll get anywhere from a few inches to a foot or more (on the less common occurrence)
Midland is MUCH smaller than Lubbock. It really pales in comparison.

Sorry, I couldn't resist

I'd go a little more north/east if it ws me. Jump on I-44 in texas and follow it till the end, anywhere in the last 276 mile stretch is a nice place to stop....
Your biggest culture shock will be the extreeeeeemly slooooooow pace everyone has........ From the time I hit the texas line my blood pressure rises, driving 10-15 mph under the posted speed limit is not uncommon and very typical. A typical 1 hour drive, takes 1 hour 45 mins becsaue of the retarded traffic. (retarded meaning slow not necesarilly being deragatory).
Other than that the people are really nice, infact maybe overly friendly.... a 5 min trip to wal mart takes an hour +, because complete strangers stop you and share thier life story.

Lubbock -- once you've been through the Buddy Holly Museum you've officially done everything there is to do in Lubbock.......

I got the joke. I even thought it was clever... but the feeling passed rather quickly.

What Texas cities are near you
I know you are from Arkansas but I love the pics I have seen from the Ozark Mountains...
Has anybody ever read The Midland, Texas Story by Tucker Max?
