Re: news about State Parks

There is a scheduled star party at Isle du Bois for 8/2 (from the web site)

Ray Roberts Lake SP/Isle du Bois Unit — Stargazing Party — Spend a few minutes or hours viewing the heavens and talking with volunteer John Olson. Bring your own telescope or gaze through John's 10 and 12-inch GIS motor driven telescopes. Meet at DORBA trailhead and use boat launch parking in the day use area. Accessible for the mobility impaired. 7-11 p.m., (940) 686-2080 or (940) 686-2148

that is the south side of the Lake and is a nice place with some shade spots and even primative spots next to the water (but its a hike in)

Johnson Branch is the north side no star party there, but here's is a link to a review with pictures (go to webshots link on 4/20)

Ray Roberts SP (Johnson Branch) 4/08

We are going to Tawakani SP this weekend, better than sitting in the house or at the mall :cool:
