TS Holiday Beach: Residents want Aransas County to address drainage issue

and last updated 2021-07-26 18:44:22-04 ROCKPORT, Texas — The residents of Holiday Beach want answers from Aransas County officials. Not only was their neighborhood extensively flooded by an estimated 11 inches of heavy rains on the weekend of July 8-11, they tell the Troubleshooters it’ll take as long as two weeks before that standing rainwater recedes. They say this problem could be solved by improving the drainage system. They also understand that while it’s great to live this close to Copano Bay, it’s not so great when it rains - a lot - like it did the weekend of July 8 through the 11th.

Should We Really Forget the Alamo? Texas Publisher Fact-Checks Controversial Alamo Book s Key Claims

The new book Forget the Alamo is causing a stir in Texas. Lavished with friendly coverage in media nationwide and in particular at the San Antonio Express-News, the book makes sensational claims and also covers ground that’s been known to historians and Alamo scholars for decades as if it’s a grand new revelation. It wasn’t written by historians or peer-reviewed before publication. But that hasn’t mattered to its public relations and marketing. The San Antonio Express-News uses the book’s claims to bash the Alamo and its defenders nearly every day. This prompted me to ask whether the Alamo City hates the Alamo last week.

Day Trips: The Big Tree, Lamar

Rockport, has been hammered and battered by Mother Nature over the centuries, and still it spreads its gnarly limbs over the coastal prairie. Most days, a steady stream of visitors stop at the small parking lot at the Big Tree. They don t stay long. It only takes a few minutes to walk around the tree s massive 90-foot canopy and pay your respects to the oldest living thing in Texas. No one knows for sure the age of the 45-foot-tall live oak ( Quercus virginiana). Estimates put the 35-foot circumference of the trunk at beginning between 500 and 3,000 years ago, with the best guess to be around 2,000 years. That would put 1969 s state champion coastal live oak at more than 500 years old when Cabeza de Vaca visited in 1528.
