Lone Star State

Jumbo State

Beef State ^NE

Blizzard State ^SD

Distinction: Texas was home to the largest cattle ranch, the XIT, which comprised nearly three million acres.
Geographic Oddity: In an area as large as Texas, you would expect some lakes. Nope, only reservoirs. Come to think of it, Caddo Lake was a naturally occurring lake, but it's half in Louisiana, and it now has a dam on it also!

Famous Native: Mary Kay ~ founder of Mary Kay
Famous Small Town: Luckenbach [pop.3] ~ country music venue

Something you might hear a Lone Starite say: "¡Se habla español!"

Little Known Factoid: Everything's bigger in Texas . . .

If I could live anywhere in Texas, it would be at Palo Duro Canyon, the second largest canyon in the country.
