  1. You’re confusing us with Lake Travis. My next door neighbor is a meth lab.
  2. To me that map represents their un-lubed dildo of consequences. I think I’ll pass.
  3. That is a perfect analogy. Well done. I may pass that along to him if I see the dude again. Laughter is definitely at a premium over there.
  4. Oh, jokes were made about Monahans. Best beach Pecos has, HOLLA!!! I was sort of disappointed the guy didn't look a bit more like Billy Bob Thornton though. If I'm being honest.
  5. The commander fella was really sincere about thanking me. The younger dudes (SIL included) were more slap on the back, "man that's good stuff!" thankful but that guy squared me up, stared straight into my eyes, and gave one of those very serious, "Thank you. No, look at me. Thank you" kind of deals. It was unsettling, but not in a bad way if that makes any sense. Of all of them he showed the weight of what they'd been through the most. The comic relief, though, was one of the guys there complaining about how when this was all over he'd have to go back to Pecos, TX. Having lived out that way for a season of my life I completely understood and co-signed his bitching.
  6. The cove circled in the upper left is where they searched today and the circle in the middle of the frame is my house...
  7. Did the BBQ drop-off in Boerne for the SIL and his team. He said they started in Bergheim today and then went straight to Canyon Lake leapfrogging the teams in between. He said they found a "few" victims and went into a bit of detail on condition, but I'll leave that out here. It's what you think it would be and ID is not easy. Met his commander, who said the guys in the field were getting fed "But it's the same sandwiches over and over..." then grumbled a bit about "The guys who are staying in Kerrville are getting the good stuff." That is to say the ribs and bacon/jap wrapped chicken skewers were well received. He told me they'd be back searching Canyon Lake tomorrow. That aspect is just surreal. The whole thing is. Well, so, for the ttwwps purists...
  8. That is something else. I my address is the orange dot. I'm literally the "shake twice" drip --
  9. I usually rely on that automatic "grounding" feature of my Mavic along with word from my neighbor who is a retired SWA pilot and professional drone operator giving me the 411 on what's GO/NO GO. looks like I need to rethink those protocols. I DO NOT want a sit down with the FAA. Ever.
  10. Alrighty then!!! Drone has been mothballed. Excellent heads-up.
  11. I've been flying the drone, so I hope I'm not out of compliance. The deer was already being collected by animal control at ramp 7. That's how I noticed it on my bike ride.
  12. SIL said his DPS recovery team is now staging from the park in Bergheim (just outside of Boerne) for their work today. That's maybe 20 minutes from Canyon Lake. They are working their way here fast. I saw dead deer floating in the lake yesterday. I think some victims are going to be found a few hundred yards from my front door. FML On a happier note he said they attacked that brisket like it had bullied them in grade school. Firing up that mf'er again and taking some swine tonight. Guessing I'll learn some things. Will report back what I can.
  13. There's literally a big ass mental institution right in the middle of town.
  14. @SydneyCarton Yeah, and still rising too.
  15. Canyon Lake as of today --
  16. Reposting as .mp4 for those who can't bring it up-- IMG_7092.mp4
  17. FML. Took a bike ride down to boat ramp 7 just to see what's what. This was going on. Up & down the shorelines slow & methodically --- IMG_7092.mov
  18. Saturday morning.
  19. This was the debris field when it arrived Saturday morning as seen from my drone up over 300 feet. No telling what is in that. Just massive.
  20. ^^This article says bodies found in Eagle Pass & Laredo from the Sanderson flood in 1965. Laredo is over 300 miles away by car from Sanderson. Crazy story... https://www.newswest9.com/article/news/local/survivors-residents-remember-sanderson-flood-of-1965-50-years-later/513-eae8a65e-71e0-4fd2-b61a-73b1a80c11c6
  21. When I was a kid we'd drive HWY 90 from SA out the the ranch near the Big Bend Nat'l Park main entrance. I always thought it was funny seeing all the dams in Sanderson. My grandmother, who grew up there explained that they once had a flood that washed away the entire town to the extent that even the graveyard was unearthed. She told me they found many of those remains in the Gulf weeks later around the mouth of the Rio Grande. If she wasn't bullshitting me, which I can't rule out, then I guess that distance from Hunt/Kerrville to Canyon Lake doesn't seem all that out of the question.
  22. BS is a rare Bear, that is for certain.
  23. He said they already found one body over 40 miles away. Couple of other dudes there nodded along.
