I'm glad you posted this and agree wholeheartedly.  It's much easier for some of us to get away to a quick trip to Dallas, SA, Austin or Houston (where I am), than to hit LA or NY.  We in Houston have been lucky recently to get Brigitte Adair and Ava Devine (just 2 that I recall), and I know one of Brigitte's recent posts mentioned that SHaYLA Sands would be stopping here at some point in the future, so things are definitely looking up.  I know they had a good experience during their visits here, so I'm hoping word will spread that we Texans are ready for more.
