The Woodlands

The Woodlands, Texas has an air about it that I can't fully describe. You drive onto FM 2978, turn onto Gosling and it's just... charming, elegant, rich, woodsy? The people are close enough to earth that you can walk into a store you can't afford and feel welcomed, but at the same time, you still can't afford the store, so why walk in? It's a land where Wal-Marts are still sprinkled ever so slightly across it, but houses over a million dollars greatly exceed their numbers. It's a place where it is cool to do theatre in highschool AND cool to do sports. It's a melting pot of classes and systems. And... it's where I grew up.
