Hey all,
I've been registered for a few weeks, and I have to tell you that this forum is incredible! So much information, so many people with a lot of wisdom to share.

I am a transplanted Kansan, being the only one in the family not from Texas...Dad was in the Air Force. I own a healthcare business, having spent 20 years with a big drug company, I thought it was time to strike out on my own. Live in Southlake, and no, I'm not rich, not a celebrity, I mow my own yard, and my kids don't have bmw's.

I've hunted since I was 6, been around firearms my whole life, and have a family that respects guns of all kinds. I told myself that it would be no use to continually check my CHL status, and to just be patient, and that worked for about the first day that I knew you could do that. The longer I wait, the more I check! I just wish the DPS site would remember my login info; I get tired of retyping it.

Took my class Aug 8, received my pin about the 18th, and I'm thinking like someone else said, maybe I ought to go ahead and apply for my renewal!

Thanks to all of you for sharing your thoughts and experiences; it really helps new guys like me.

Steve
