Re: South Padre Island Trip

Well I might have to retract what I said in my prior post. I don't know if you'll be going to any border towns, but DPS has issued a traveler's advisory, advising spring breaker's to avoid them:

"The Texas Department of Public Safety is urging all Texas Spring Breakers to avoid traveling to border cities in Mexico."

They are taking this seriously, and advise you to do the same. Stay safe and alert at all times.

Re: South Padre Island Trip

I was born in Ft.Worth in 1947. I've been to many places in Texas. From the Piney Woods of East Texas to Laredo. From Amarillo to Galveston. To Corpus Christi to Lubbock. But I've never been to El Paso or South Padre....2 places I hope to get to before I get to meet the Great RSO.

I applaud d stokes for going to an absolute paradise right here in Texas. And I say "d stokes, go ahead on and go!" You've got a Texas CHL and you have the absolute RIGHT to carry where ever you want to. You are after all, in Texas! :txflag:

If you are concerned call the local PD, the local tourist bureau and get tips. But do not let what you've heard hamper or curtail your vacation there. After all, it's a more southern point than the Florida Keys, right? ;-)
