However she will miss Boston's wonderful public transit !!! I spent 2 years there 1969-1971 and still miss the T
Austin traffic is abominable.

I would recommend she find the local Democratic Women's Groups

www.tdw.org is the website. All the local clubs are listed.

Also the county party will have info on all the grass roots groups.

Glad she is ready to work for Beto! We have a runoff coming up to choose LtGov and AG nominees.

she absoloutely needs this: https://www.traveltexas.com/

You can order the travel guide in printed format to keep in the car. Every festival, museum, natural wonder, historic location etc is in this book. We have lived here since 1989 and we still get a new one every couple or three years.

One can have a lot of fun in Texas!
