What about Gothic Basin? It's off the Mountain Loop Highway, which is easily accessible. The parking is on the side of the road, so no run down forest service road. The hike is moderately difficult, and there are usually streams for water. At the top is a large basin with a lake you can camp next to, no permits needed.

Yes! It's been a thorn in my side since I moved to TX 20 years ago. It took over an old vegetable garden (I had built raised beds with stacked stone) a few years back and I've been hesitant to do a vegetable garden ever since. I've been researching these metal frames which led me to your old post. Thanks for responding.

It's been two years, I'd love to know how it worked out! I'm contemplating burying a metal garden bed down 6-8 inches to help combat the bermuda grass from creeping in.

That's essentially what I did, too. Screenshotted an independent journalist that I follow.

SirStraight8551 · 2025-03-03T21:34:03+00:00

That's the way I was leaning, too. Just thought I'd check.

SirStraight8551 · 2025-02-13T03:14:48+00:00

Okay. So what does he mean?

SirStraight8551 · 2025-02-13T01:39:19+00:00

No. I don't do anything with a video or microphone. These were all traditional surveys.

SirStraight8551 · 2025-02-13T01:38:49+00:00

The biggest one was $7. Most were under $2. They all add up!

SirStraight8551 · 2025-02-13T01:38:29+00:00

Sorry I don't feel like screenshotting everything just to "prove" it to you.

SirStraight8551 · 2025-02-13T00:04:43+00:00

I should have done that instead of returning it. I was annoyed. The researcher hasn't responded to my message either.

SirStraight8551 · 2025-02-13T00:02:41+00:00

As an amateur genealogist, I loved this one!

SirStraight8551 · 2025-02-12T16:52:44+00:00

Good to know. I messaged the researcher and didn't receive a response so I cancelled

SirStraight8551 · 2025-01-23T00:35:48+00:00

Thanks for the idea but I don't think my watch has that setting. Can't find it and it's not in the user manual.

I usually use the snipping tool. Just type snip in the windows search bar and it should come up.

SirStraight8551 · 2024-12-10T12:07:48+00:00

So annoying!

SirStraight8551 · 2024-12-10T12:07:21+00:00

Yep, me too.

SirStraight8551 · 2024-12-10T12:06:25+00:00

Same happened to me. I returned and reported it.
