You Think You Have Sun Where You Live?

Have you ever experienced the Texas Sun?

If you haven’t…You have NO IDEA!

Let’s put it this way, I just arrived in Dallas on September 25th. On September 26th, we played a little bit of flag football outside…what…a few hours of sun in the fall, right?

I got sooo burnt, it’s not even funny…

The Texas sun is blazing! I’m not even prone to sun burn, but you better be sure to wear your sunscreen, especially if you are…

It is fall, and it is hotter here right now than it felt all summer long in Ontario, although we had an especially cold and rainy one…

Now I remember why I went to school here…those Canadian winters are brutal! Fall only lasts a short while there before it gets very cold.

I’m not saying that Texas is warm all year round, but it RARELY snows…I think we had a slight dusting about 4 yrs ago one morning that immediately melted as it hit the ground…

Moreso, it is rainy and cold…but only for about 2 months…Then it starts warming up again!

Canadian winters last sometimes from October through April…I mean, with snow the whole time too…

There are winters that we’ve only had snow from December through March, but those are more rare.

If you’re looking for maximized sunshine, Texas is the place to go!

If you’re looking for a place for your next Spring Break, South Padre Island is a fun place to go.

I had the pleasure of going for a few days in my Freshman year at Texas A&M University. It is the Southern-most tip of the United States on the border of Madamoris, Mexico.

We had fun-in-the-sun, it’s a huge college party, and we even went to Mexico one night to have fun in a large group.

* Tip: It can be dangerous to go by yourself or even a small group into Mexico. Stay together at all times, don’t travel too far from the border and stay in busy places…Never go anywhere by yourself! Most of all, don’t get so inebriated that you don’t know what’s going on either!
