Moving out West

My people were degenerate wanderers from out Germany way and people of similar ilk found themselves wrapped up in California, safe in their vests of Kevlar, all based up with free samples of diet coke and asprecream. My Great Grandfather started In Mississippi, farming tobacco, but then an unfortunate war happened in 1861 which brought him to Texas...Texas is the rawboned land of the white trash...Professional in their vices. Memorialized only in their desire for their seed to have some education. Some option other than slaving on no vacation double shifts. My Granddad went on a camping vacation once and when he came back he lost half his clients to his main competition. That's why my father really disliked camping...Work is serious business.
