Now that is a nice looking lake as opposed to a place to fly kites.
It reminds me though, that all the lakes in Texas aside from maybe 2 are man-made.
Many boat ramps were closed. The water was just too low.
EXACTLY my thought....
Gotcha....I understand restricting water in droughts. But that is usually our local rural water board that asks us to do that, not the Feds. But I understand your point.
but we still have water, so far. But start stocking up bottled water for us if things don’t change.
All this rain recently barely made a dent.
WOW!!! looks like its been a while since you could use that boat ramp as a BOAT ramp!
nice camper
These girls just didn’t go about it correctly.
They needed to be doing one of two things:
1. Topless and constantly kissing and rubbing each other.
2. Pay a couple guys to dress in Bikinis and prance around and help.
Either of those would have allowed them to scream LBGT discrimination and the environazis would have slinked away and allowed them to continue.
Agricultural runoff is a BIG deal here in my neck of America. Soap? not so much.
lol
that's why God invented tar, feathers, and rails
if you care about your paint finish you would stay away from any bunch of cheerleaders with the intent to “clean” your car with a bucket of water and brushes that contains the filth of the 50 cars that went ahead of you.
seriously.

4 years and counting....
Side story. Me and Mrs R2 just bought property at Medina Lake this year. Because they develped a nice community as a lake side resort subdivision - and now there is no lake - they have cut asking prices by 1/2.
So yeah. We just bought two lots. Cheap. If and when the water returns and the lake comes back - BOUNS! Our values will double.
If not - well it is still a nice community. We keep our RV there and it makes for a great weekend getaway.
Especially if you have a white car.
I love this Xterra. It tows that RV with power to spare.
This wasn’t the Feds. The city also let the school know how to hold a car wash without risking the environment. Putting the cars on a grassy area is not such a hardship. This is one of those rules that makes sense. Liberal probably would want to have centrally controlled water meters to make sure water use was distributed fairly and restricted once a certain level was reached.
Now what gets interesting is when the rules themselves are a main contributor to a problem that other rules are made to solve or prevent. For example requiring that parking areas have a certain amount of impervious surface means at some point you will get run off from that surface.
Ah but what can one expect, these are the same type of great minds that believed a low flush toilet would save water. Forgetting just why the toilet needed to flush int he first place.
I think maybe they ship it to China for them to put in dog treats.
TO CAPTURE FREE RAIN WATER!
Wow!
Um, who’s been watering the lawn? Looks awful green. :-^)
Yep. We have had some rain this summer - but we need a few hundred feet more to fill ‘er up.
