State Parks “I was talking to someone on another thread about this and it got me to thinking. (i know thats scarry but bear with me)anyway I stayed ata State Park in NJ last summer with my sister. All day and all night the troopers drive up and down the campsite. It made it hard to kick back and drink a couple of beers (ok maybe alot) so now I go out of my way to find a private park to car camp with my family. Have you found that in State Parks near you? ps they really dont like it when they catch you skinny dipping! that makes them very very mad. but hay the lake was Awsome and with the beer I didnt even notice how cold the water was oh by the way anyone in NJ find a pair of underwear on the beach in Clinton? LOL” 12:30:13 PM 5/29/02 “That was yours?” 12:30:55 PM 5/29/02 Seriously, though.... “I can't remember if alcoholic beverages are banned in Alabama's state parks or not. Anyway, I've had a beer or two while kicking back at the state park near here, and never had any problems. Maybe in the state parks that are in dry counties it's a problem. Also, I've never seen a state trooper, or any law in a state park here, other than the park rangers themselves.” 12:38:06 PM 5/29/02 We are at WAR “There is a nuclear power plant in our neighborhood. The parks nearby are patrolled all the time. The Coast Guard has a boat in the area, and helicopters fly around all the time. All this activity started post 9/11. Is your park next to a nuclear garbage dump?” 12:38:44 PM 5/29/02 “hope you arent drinking the water bacpac !” 12:42:14 PM 5/29/02 nuclear garbage dump “hay does that mean you dont have to sit in the sun to get a tan??” 12:43:12 PM 5/29/02 “Only if it's emitting UV....” 12:43:42 PM 5/29/02 “Wildflower, which private campgrounds in NJ do you like?” 1:07:19 PM 5/29/02 Nuke Plant In Neighborhood? “bacpac lives in Springfield? Say hi to Monty Burns!” 1:15:55 PM 5/29/02 “ive been to a camp near Great Adventure. god that sucked so bad!! Never go camping on a holiday (july 4th) cant think of the other one. when i do ill let you know.” 1:20:42 PM 5/29/02 “Why doesn't it surprise me to find out that bacpac lives near a nuclear power plant?” 1:25:48 PM 5/29/02 “....AND he looks like Homer......or is it Gomer?” 1:55:42 PM 5/29/02 “back to the "question" game? And can you imagine the picture of his family all together for a reunion, in the shadow of the nuclear cooling towers?” 2:02:01 PM 5/29/02 Why yes, I could, Lyndys. “ ![]() 2:18:48 PM 5/29/02 “I was camped at Hickory Run State Park in Pa. and drinking Glen Livet. The park ranger saw the bottle on top of the picnic table me, but he was cool. "Sir, that's an awfully expensive scotch. I'd hate to have to pour it out, so my advice is to keep it out of view." Drink out of a plastic or metal cup and enjoy. What they don't see won't bother you. Of course, if you get falling down drunk and rowdy, that's another case. In my case I wasn't bothering anybody so he let it slide.” 2:21:07 PM 5/29/02 “hay the guy on the left has a sun tan how come???” 2:24:27 PM 5/29/02 Use a coffee cup “If you're drinking and don't want anyone to know, from a distance anyway, pour it into a coffee cup (not metal) and keep the bottle out of sight.” 2:51:01 PM 5/29/02 “i know a snapple bottle is good for beer. but it goes flat faster.” 2:56:27 PM 5/29/02 “Metal cup.....liquor? What little tidbit of chemistry am I missing?” 3:57:06 PM 5/29/02 “next you will be doing jello shots in plastic tubes. hehe” 4:03:56 PM 5/29/02 LindyS “I didn't do well in chemistry, but experience tells me liquor in a metal cup tastes "funny." Beer in a chilled "stein" is fine.” 10:21:36 PM 5/29/02
