    TX>GOOSE ISLAND SP>POLL ON FB FOR DATE

    Starting a thread about a possible hang at Goose Island State Park in April. This should give Spring Breakers time to clear out and the annual migration of the spring birds to come in. Not to mention IT"S OYSTER SEASON! There are great amenities and we are looking at the Bayberry section sites 107-118 as the beginning. These sites are water and electric, they also have multiple hang options. These are "cleared" sites so no underbrush. If you have any questions please ask. I will be talking with rangers this week to finalize everything. SO, get ready for some springtime hanging coastal style!!

    Goose Island is one of a handful of Texas State Parks I've yet to visit. I hope the calendar works on my end.

    As a resident of Rockport I might take offense to the comments about the mosquitoes





    If it weren't true


    But seriously... they shouldn't be bad then.

    This is my neck of the woods, so I don't see why we couldn't make this one.

    Cheryl and I will plan on being there if nothing else demands our attention and time.

    P.S. Carry your money in your front pockets, because one mosquito will trip you while another will try to fly off with your wallet. As they say..... everything is bigger in Texas.
