Abilene, Texas???

Last time you were there was 3 odd years ago. I say, seldom does anything remain the same... gets bigger or smaller, better or worse, etc/

I could be wrong but I bet Abilene is pretty conservative for a decent size city.

I suggest you learn as much as you can about today's Abilene but make the trip there and spend a week. Not that terribly far from Dallas/FW and it has plenty of car stuff. Good luck.
