    I was listening to a radio show today related to SL. It
    sounded like a great place, and I wanted to ask any
    resident about their experience(s).

    Well, the radio show in which I was listening, featured
    the Mayor of SL. Apparently, SL has been voted by
    some magazine as the third best city of Texas/US, in
    which to live.

    Wait a minute.... let me see if I can firm up that claim a
    little.

    I'm back.... It was Money magazine, and here's a link:

    Along with a couple of others - caveat emptor....

    Anyway, I've been looking for a more retirement friendly
    area, and the verbal picture painted of SL seemed as it
    might be attractive.

    It seems like there was a member of this group some time
    ago that lived in SL. As I recall, he had just purchased a
    crated 2003 Honda Valkyrie. Soon thereafter, he suffer-
    ed some financial difficult(y)(ies) and had to sell the bike.

    Using Google to search tx.moto, I see that the name for
    which I was referring is Lynn McGuire. Apparently, he's
    had no usenet postings since 4/2005.

    Anyone else have any pro/con details on SL?


    Thanks,

    Gary

    Thanks for the reply. I recall the '03 Valk buy/sale.

    I just wanted to ask a few questions about life in SL.

    Nothing too complicated, just cost of living stuff, and
    quality of life/retirement issues.

    Since your reply is masked, maybe you could reply
    to me. Or, I guess we can use the NG.


    Thanks,

    Gary

    Thanks Lynn. I did review the taxes on one of the prop-
    erties in your FBCAD. The guy on the radio led the aud-
    ience to believe SL had low tax rates, but that's just not
    so. They might be favorable when compared to some
    place like NYC, east/west coast, but not Texas.

    I did see the M.U.D. references in the datasheet. I don't
    know what that means, but there are many of these class-
    ifications. Because of all the taxing entities(the subject
    property had 7), and the various rates, the eventual taxes
    are even higher than in Dallas.

    I need to look further out in the country.

    Thanks again for your help, and I'm glad to hear that your
    wife has successfully recovered from cancer.

    get to work him and feed him.

  12. No, didn't fly in either. But I do enjoy seeing the big screen at the
    'Skeeters ballpark when they are there playing. They are right across SH 6
    from the airport. Some day I will actually pony up a buck or two and take in
    a game.
