US Southwest RIGS AND COFFEE - SOUTH CENTRAL TEXAS

[Sparksalot]

Fairfield SP is being sold to a developer. The lease to the State just ended and the owners is selling the land to a Developer.

I didn’t realize it was a lease. Interesting. I’ve camped there once, a few years ago. The feral hog damage along the trails was significant.

We’re in the big parking area in about the center

The heat wave and hurricane force winds were brutal this morning.

beyond that it was good to see everyone. Lots of cool rigs today.

A Texas park on leased land near Dallas must close because the state’s landlord is selling the property to a developer

After investing $72 million in improvements at Fairfield Lake State Park over three decades, the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department is out. The state has 120 days to vacate the property.

He's been trying to sell that for a while, I'm surprised it hasn't been scooped up

I'll be in SA this weekend, wish i could be there to show off my new bed rack!!!! Picked up a Putco Venture Tec rack yesterday. It's only a year old. Right now its secured with ratchet straps and a bike lock, but will be securing it appropriately next week once i figure out how to get the bed rail caps off. I'll show it off at the April Meetup!

I'll be there Saturday.

Anyone interested in giving me a hand getting my bedrack mounted on saturday? It's heavy so I can't do it myself, and since it was mounted on a Chevy I'm going to need to get creative with mounting it. Who likes a puzzle?

I would also like to pick y'all's brains about getting lighting wired up back there too.

TIA

Let’s take a look and brainstorm, there’s a Lowe’s and Home Depot down the road if we need anything.
