When we (my mom, dad and me) first moved back here to Texas from living in California for about 7 years, I first smelled something funny outside coming from both paper mills. I think they shut one down over the last couple of years. Anyway, I wanted to say to my dad "Did you fart?" But that SM was telling me that it was not appropriate to say that to someone older than you and that I needed to respect them. So I held in what I wanted to say. That was before my mom even got home from working at ob&t. A law firm she was working at before we moved to Cali. That was in 1997, I believe.
I just felt like I wanted to mention that, so I wrote it down in a blog.
Here is how I like to explain Beaumont's location. Drive about 90 miles southeast from Houston, and once you smell shit, you are there. I know that is ugly, but it is also funny at the same time. 😯😐
