My hubby is a field engineer who works out of the house and does most of his
work in the Med Center, so we can live anywhere in the area that we want
also. We *love* it here. It's soooo much nicer than Sugar Land (where we
moved from). And it's grown and developed so much in the 12 years that have
passed since I last lived here. Tons of shopping and great restaurants of
all types of cuisines (they just opened a Mi Luna up here and are about to
open a Grotto). And the walking/biking trails that wind all through The
Woodlands and all the many, many great parks are just awesome. I have a
two-year-old, so we've really been enjoying all the many things available
here for kiddos (they've recently opened a Children's Museum up here that's
supposed to be pretty good). With all that's here, we hardly ever need to go
down into Houston (except maybe to go to the Village or to the zoo).

I think you'd really like it here, too, Chris! Hey, can't hurt to just
look at some homes up here. (And you did say you like it green...)
