Corpus Christi Hooks

Before all of the hustle and bustle of the semester started, Ben and I decided to head out on the town here in Corpus Christi and we experienced our first Hooks game! Let me say, this will definitely not be our last visit to the Whataburger stadium here in Corpus; it was so much fun!

The crowd was into the game, the environment was fun, and the game was a nail biter! What more could you ask for?!

We sat right behind home plate and cheered along with the rest of the crowd as the Hooks defeated the San Antonio Missions. I'm so glad we went and we will be back soon!

I guess Texas really isn't that bad...

With views like this, I really can't complain too much about Texas.

Whataburger

Ben and I had our first true Texas experience at Whataburger this last week. It's a big deal down here in the Lone Star State.

Whataburger actually started right here in Corpus Christi, Texas, by an entrepreneur named Harmon Dobson. The idea was "to serve a burger so big that it took two hands to hold, and so good that after a single bite customers couldn't help but exclaim, 'What a burger!'" Served on nothing other than Texas toast, I will say that the burger was definitely big, but then of course everything is big in Texas!

While it didn't leave me proclaiming "What a burger!" , it was a fun to experience a little bit of Corpus Christi's culture.

We're moving ...

...to Corpus Christi, Texas. It's still all sinking in.
