So I am not sure he will actually be traveling  the great walking and biking trails we have here in Highland Village, Texas, but many residents can use them to get to him at Unity Park on April 4, 2009 for The Annual Highland Village Easter Egg Hunt.

Next to the article Buying a Home with the Texas Veterans Land Board Program (TVLB) it is the most read item on this little blog, but has generated the most emails and phone calls.
