GMNP - where's the interest?

“I see a lot of politics and gossip on this site but where's the interest in something real and challenging like my proposed trip to west Texas? Hell, you might at least tellme why you're not interested! I could go from there as to where to look for a hiking partner. Shalom”

“Sorry dude, but the screen-name you chose is somewhat similar to that of a local scumsucker (not that 'Shalom' is a word that would ever pass his lips, or the sentiment would ever cross his mind).

Anyway, that could be part of the problem.

Also, there don't seem to be many folks here from that particular area at the present time. There are concentrations of 'posters' on the West Coast (north, west and central), Michigan and vicinity, the Northeast and the Southeast, with others scattered about. They DO travel some appreciable distances on occasion --- once they get to know you.

(I think Jello Fog is from Texas, but why in the world would you want to inflict something like that on yourself?)”

“I think anyone making a trip voluntarily to Texas ought to be given a frontal lobotomy.


According to The National Council on Intelliegent Tourism, Texas is third on the list of states to be avoided at any cost.”

“how come, redhawk?”

“Probably because George Bush lives in Texas. Liberals are very enlightened.

Sorry, every, "I hate politics" thread needs a little political venom.”

“ok

“He has started two previous strings.

While the towering walls of McKittrick Canyon protect the riches of diversity, its precious secrets are hidden in riparian oasis. It is no wonder that it has been described as the "most beautiful spot in Texas." But for all its magical power, that delights thousands of people each year, its fragility reminds us that our enjoyment cannot compromise its necessity for survival. It must survive - not for us, but for all that lives within.
