Things to do in Texas (expect to drive over 300 miles from one major city to another; You drive in Texas).

在德州開車，日常通勤瑣事30-40英里稱為普通距離，出城開車200英里以上 ，3小時的車程小case。

幾年前每天上下班200英里，4小時車程往返。

過去兩年每週往返700英里 ， 11-12小時車程往返，中途休息15-20分鐘。

老了身體超負荷運轉，  今年年初定居在新家 ，現在每天上下班15-20分鐘車程往返 ，享受我的空巢大房。

現在週末 3小時內的車程， 當地旅遊 .  觀光 .購物遊之旅。
