One of the things I have heard over and over again while living in West Texas, is that there is nothing to do here. So when I moved back to West Texas 2 years ago I made a decision to try and find anything and everything there is to do in this desert side of …

I spent a year and a half serving a mission for my church in Seattle, Washington. When people asked where I was from, I would describe West Texas as a land of nothing but dirt and oil rigs. If you have driven through West Texas than you know, it ain’t pretty. Once in a while …
