They should put up signs telling us law-abiding citizens that we are violating.
I love Arkansas, both sides of my family are from there, and I have been around Scouting for a long time. I was a Cub Scout back in the 60s, and an Explorer in the 70s. I’m not involved anymore, but I still love their ethos.
A Scout is ...
Trustworthy
Loyal
Helpful
Friendly
Courteous
Kind
Obedient
Cheerful
Thrifty
Brave
Clean
and
Reverent.
This place is sweet, one of the better scout camps I have ever stayed in. I just feel like a moron for breaking the law, I didn’t know.
Yeah, I could have chosen my words more carefully. In Texas the technical description is Concealed Handgun License, but Concealed Carry actually makes more sense to the average person.
Now that I have made this public my pal will prolly get fired. I should have kept this private, but it was a good story that I wanted to share.
Dale is like that. Has been, for a long time now. I try not to engage him at all.
Boy, have I had some run-ins with that one. He's got a hate on for Texas that knows no bounds. I'm originally from Cali, and even I can't talk sense into him. Strange.
Actually the correct location name is DEGRAY Lake - not LAKE Degray................
You know, that may be common for Corps lakes. Here Lake Grapevine is the normal usage but I think it is actually Grapevine Lake, too.
Naming of things around there is kinda odd sometimes. Driving up from the Interstate you go through Clark, Hot Springs and Garland counties. Hot Springs is in Garland County, and I think the lake straddles all three. That is why they have a hard time figuring out which department has jurisdiction when there is an accident so they normally roll units from all three until an exact location is determined. The deputy we talked to is out of Hot Springs County, and the Sheriff’s Office is in Malvern, about 30 miles away, while the cities of Hot Springs and Arkadelphia are 10-15 miles.
