Thanks for all the info!
Is it true they don't sell beer on sundays? I'll just have to remember to stock up on saturdays.
If you like lakes but don't want the big city scene, you could try looking into Granbury. Very cute lake town and quite a few healthcare opportunities. We have some people who work the TDA (two day weekend plan) and commute from Grandbury and stay home on the lake the rest of the week !
East Texas is also well known for their lakes and a smaller town atmosphere (although admittedly it might be too small for some people !).
The Bryan-College Station area is a GREAT area that is young at heart, smaller in size and has equa-distant access to Houston and Austin and lots of lake areas nearby. There are at least 2-3 hospitals that I know of and they pay quite well from what I understand.
