    Ok. Cool. Here's the GPS and directions for those that don't want to mess with looking it up.

    GPS Info. (Latitude, Longitude):
    30.69594, -97.82712
    30°41'45"N, 97°49'38"W

    From I-35, take Williams Drive west, then turn south on Farm to Market Rd 3405. Turn east on County Rd 258 and continue across the North San Gabriel River. Turn left into Tejas Park.
    If you ain't havin' fun, you're doin' it wrong

    Re: Tx>Goodwater loop>April 5,6 and 7

    Anyone have any knowledge of the state of the burn ban?

    I have received two candle lanterns thus far and both have come with cracked glass... So I don't know if I will have a candle lantern or not...

    It sounds like the ups man is throwing them at your door.

    I just got a mini so I will bring both of my lanterns...

    That's just it... The way the mini UCO is built I don't think its breaking in transit... I think its getting broke at the factory... Because the glass is encased in metal... The metal is wrapped in clam shell packaging... The clam shell has been well wrapped inside a box... And the box hasn't been damaged... It's weird...

    Man that is odd.
    Where are you getting them from? Maybe they are tring to sell off defective lanterns or got a bad batch. Call and have them hand select one to inspect it before they ship it...

    Amazon... I have never had any issued with stuff coming messed up... The problem is without cutting open the clam shell and extending the lantern you can't see the glass... Makes it hard to inspect...

    Well I wish they would stop it... I want to like this little thing... But I ain't lighting it on fire if it starts off broke... I don't mind if I break it... I don't buy broken things that I can't fix...

    I have had the original model for over 6 years and I have been very rough with it without putting a scratch on it...
    I hope everything works out with it because they are nice to have in your pack..
