Actually, the red neon Pegasus was a land mark that flew over Dallas's skyline for years, courtesy of Magnolia Oil. I still recall returning to Dallas in the back seat of mom and dad's car and seeing that huge red horse and knowing I was home. Looking for Pegasus was just part of a road trip. Seeing it, or crossing the Red River ( the bounday between Texas and Oklahoma) was just a symbolic home coming to me as a native Texan. Perhaps your home town or state has something unique that as soon as you see it says home to you.
