Re: Moody Gardens

I don't know who is in charge of the esthetics of Moody Gardens, but I suspect whoever it is would choke at the thought of putting up a valid 30.06 sign. I haven't been there for a while, but IIRC they don't have the usual "no smoking no shirt no shoes no service" crud either.

As I said, there is no valid 30.06 sign anywhere on Galveston Island. Welcome to the sandbar. Stay safe.

Re: Moody Gardens

Within 1,000 feet of a place of execution on the day of execution, if so directed by officials in charge.

And I might add that the only place of execution is the Walls Unit in Huntsville.

Primary and secondary schools in other states. :roll:

Re: Moody Gardens

The foundational principles that established Moody Gardens as an untaxed non-profit required it to be on publicly owned land. The city owns a big swatch of land in that area including Moody Gardens, the golf course, and the airport. I don't know who owns the improvements (i.e., buildings) at Moody Gardens. It's a real complicated legal issue.

Re: Moody Gardens

The City of Galveston owns every square inch of Moody Gardens.

But it isn't posted, so why do people insist on trying to make water run up a rope?

Re: Moody Gardens

Nothing in Galveston is legally posted, just a few obsolete or bogus signs.

Moody Gardens is not an amusement park. It has no rides, and the population of the county is less than a million. Only Six Flags and Sea World meet the legal specifications under that useless statute.
