Longview Vacation Guide
Longview, Texas is a growing city located in E Texas on I-20. The city really lives up to it's tag line, "Real East Texas Living." This means the people are friendly, the pace a little slower and the quality of life is good. The city has some famous residents including country singer, Neil McCoy.
The roads and infrastructure are very good. The loop 281 around town has just been repaved and widen. There is a pretty good local bus service available; you would have to check with city for schedules.
There is a nice indoor mall, various chain restaurants including one of my favorites, Carrino\'s. Lots of national chain stores like Target, Sam’s Club and Kohl’s. There are even more than one Starbucks, with drive up windows. Many houses of worship including the Church of Christ, Baptist, Catholic, Lutheran, Methodist and non denominational churches can be found throughout the city.
Kilgore College has a campus here as well as the private college, Letourneau University. Letourneau has a new venue that hosts many great concerts and celebrity appearances.
The convention center was once a temporary home for many Katrina victims as well the place that President Clinton came to campaign for his wife. It is a very nice place.
There are plenty of hotel rooms with new properties being built as we speak. Many special events including Alley Fest are always going on. Check out the chamber website at: www.longviewchamber.com

The skies of Texas are just as vast, varied and vulnerable as it beautiful. I have decided to just capture what the day brings. I am sure I will find inspiration every time I look up and out; I hope everyone else will as well.

Started off as a normal day... but as I was with the Sweeps, Unroe hit something weird on the road, swerved into John and took a really nasty spill. I used my expert first aid skills and patched him up. I ended up taking him to the ER because his cut is the size of a half dollar and a few inches de…
