there until I moved to California at the age of 7. Lubbock has always been my favorite place because of the traditions and memories it carries. The first tradition that comes to my mind is Mackenzie Park. My family, along with multiple other families would gather there every holiday, and most weekends and we would have a massive barbecue.
