Houston Texas... just about south of Chicago in the USA. Houston is considered to have a "Sub-Tropical" climate. It rains more here than in Seattle... Once a week, at a minimum, every week; all year.

There are many skylines in Houston, this is one of the main ones...
Downtown they have finally installed the Metrorail. It really goes about nowhere because of all the infighting at city hall about where it should go... The opinions vary because of what properties the members of city council own...

This is Americas Center... You may recognize it from the SimCity 2000+ Series:

The ugly little squat white building to the right of it is the FBI Building... infamous only because the contractor mounted the windows backwards so they opened from the outside.
One of the weird events here is the Art Car Parade:

There is too much more but if y'all pop on down let me know and the wife and I can locate you the best Barbeque in the USA and the Happiest Tex-Mex as well as one of the best Hamburgers (invented in Texas!) ever!!!
