Bring Texas with You Wherever You Go!

Every Texan enjoys exploring new places outside our state's borders. However, there comes a point during a trip or vacation that we start to miss our roots. Now you won't have to worry about missing home. This blog is all about how you can take the great state of Texas with you wherever you go!

Decorations: First things first, adding decorations throughout your RV is the perfect thing to do to remind yourself of your hometown roots. Put family pictures in a Texas Themed Photo Frame. Get comfortable in the living area with this Texas Throw Pillow and this Texas Blanket.  Finally, add this Texas Floor Mat to your bathroom or kitchen to spruce up the place, Texas style. 

Music: Texas tends to leave a mark on lots of people. Which is why there are so many great songs written about this great state. Here are some Texas toons that are bound to fix your homesick blues. First and foremost the king of country music: George Strait has given us many singles about Texas. Some crowd favorites are All My Ex's Live in Texas and Amarillo by Morning. The band Alabama released If You're Gonna Play in Texas in 1984 and now everyone wants to have a fiddle in their band. Make sure to play this for all your friends and family who aren't from Texas because Lyle Lovett will make sure they know the door is always open. Finally, She's Like Texas is sure to be a crowd pleaser and will help you remember the trees of Nacogdcohes (and RVO)!

Food: One thing everyone can agree on is that southern cooking is an all time favorite, no matter what time zone you are in. From chicken fried steak to sweet tea, these recipes with help bring the taste and smells of Texas into your RV kitchen. Let's start off this tour of fantastic tastes with a simple chicken fried steak recipe. If chicken fried steak is on the menu, you know everyone will want to be there. It's a good thing most of RVO's inventory seats more than six people comfortably. A perfect side item for chicken fried steak of course is green beans, but not the ones that come from a can. This recipe offers a scrumptious take on the classic side dish, because it adds potatoes with the green beans. Come on, who doesn't love potatoes? Finally, the beverage of choice for the perfect Texan cuisine is sweet tea. A whole lot of sugar and a drop of lemon, is home in a cup for every Texan. 

Apparel: Finally, the best way to take Texas with you is to wear her on your sleeve. Let's start with a fashionable pair of Women's Texas Flag Boots or Men's Texas Flag Boots. These boots are sure to show off your Texas pride in every step. Pair your boots with a pair of denim jeans and a t-shirt showing off your favorite Texas team! The final touch for ladies can be a fashionable Texas necklace and for the gents a snazzy Texas Belt Buckle. You might get a lot of looks while you are wearing this Texas themed outfit, but you will certainly make the eyes of Texas shine brightly upon you.

I hope this blog gave you some ideas on how to bring Texas along for the ride. After all, you can take us out of Texas but you can't take the texan out of us! Don't forget to follow us on social media and use the hashtag #OnTheRoadWithRVO to share your summer adventures with us. Happy travels!
