I can still remember the way things were back then
In spite of all the bans and mods, I'd live it all again
To see the food porn pics and HRV's zingers ring
Makes me proud to be on SECRant where HRV is still the king
That's really pretty good stitchop !
I like the witty, funny, you more than the snarky troll you !

You can say that about many rivers west of 99 degrees longitude. It's called intermittent flow.
FYI: It's Burkburnett (no "e" on the end). Named for the guy that owned the 6666 ranch.
I had lots of family in Foard Country, and we all believed the tall tale that he won the ranch in a poker hand throwing by throwing down four sixes.
We felt kind of dumb when his descendants said that 6666 was just the cattle brand and the ranch was bought with cash as he was a master livestock operator.

The one time I saw it was in north LA in the spring. It was running high and looked like red-tinted diarrhea.
That's just the paper mill runoff.

quote:Under the Adams-Onis Treaty of 1819, the south bank has been construed as the border (it doesn't say that real explicitly, so the Supreme Court had to clarify that). And, determining what is the south bank isn't as easy as you might think. There is a lot of normally dry land that appears to be on the Texas side of the river that is actually part of Oklahoma.

Every time I've crossed it (many) it has looked muddier than hell.

You can say the same about the Mississippi. Is it also a creek?

Was it on the Texas side? Do you remember which town you were around or the cove/marina you launched at?
Texas side. This was him. Looked a little like Jerry Reed.

The river changes course over time, but the boundary was fixed long ago.
