citykid09 Posted July 22, 2005 Share Posted July 22, 2005 I am from Bryan and did not know that, I saw here on tv the other day and someone asked her where would she want to live if see could live anywhere in the world and she for the United States she said Houston, or Austin. I forgot what see said for the rest of the world. I was interested why she said that so I looked up information about her and find out she is from my home town. I wonder why she is never mentioned? http://www.museum.tv/archives/etv/E/htmlE/...ellerbeelin.htm LINDA ELLERBEE (Linda Jane Smith). Born in Bryan, Texas, U.S.A., 15 August 1944.

WestGrayGuy Posted July 22, 2005 Share Posted July 22, 2005 Funny that you say you like the hills in CS. It has the reputation of being flat when compared to places like Austin. But of course if you compare CS to Houston, it is like the Hill Country. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
