5/11/2014I enjoyed your review very much. I must correct you though, that being Christian does not cause destructive behavior unless you have a beef with it. Would you prefer that we all be Muslim or believe in the sun and the moon? I love living in cities where you can view beautiful churches with their interesting steeples and crosses. This is America and I hope to move to such a city.

5/11/2014I enjoyed reading your reviews. I am thinking of moving to a place with mountains and cooler weather. Here, where I live, it gets very humid, hot and very congested. I have lived in Lubbock, Amarillo, Fort Worth and now here in New Braunfels. Looking for a good place to live when I'm fully retired.

1/25/2012I just read your update of 2008 and would like know if you still think that way. I'm also thinking of moving to Albuquerque. I just absolutely love mountains but don't like extreme weather, just a smattering of snow and freezing weather.

1/25/2012I'm interested in the relocating from New Braunfels, TX to a place close to the mountains. Since Farmington is close to the mountains I was considering that option. Also, I like to see snow, not too much and like cool weather. How long have you lived there?

The skinny on New Braunfels -
1/20/2012I came here from a smaller city close to I-40 and I thought the traffic on I-35 was terrible. This is a tourist town so traffic downtown can get very congested especially during summer. Some of the streets have a lot of patches which makes for a bumpy ride. There is need for a lot of road construction in town, especially on Walnut street which is being widened, but there are others areas that get really bad, esp., around rush hour. A good home runs about 130k and we are surrounded by big metropolis such as Austin and San Antonio. Lots of motorcycling in this area and a lot of curvy roads leading to all the small scenic towns around this area known as the Hill Country. Also, since I enjoy tennis there is a lot of tennis considering that Newt's tennis ranch is here and there is a USTA tournament every weekend within 250 miles or closer. The weather is very mild in winter and I enjoy it because I'm used to low humidity but in summer, it gets very hot and the humidity makes it worse. The heat usually starts getting bad in July and lasts bad until October. After that it mild weather. There is the sclitterbaum, (misspelled probably, a swimming, water amusement park that attracts thousands during summer and also there is tubing the Guadalupe River. Plenty of night life if you go downtown or the Riverwalk in San Antonio, 30 miles south. The city has a lot of bike lanes and we are surrounded by lakes for boating or swimming. There are also several caverns nearby and Fiesta Texas amusement part and Shamu in the waterpark. Definitely an outdoor place but very hot in summer.
