As posted above, rule to carry in state parks was allowed July 8, 1998 (Executive Director Order NO. 98-001, Texas Parks and Wildlife). Tried to put a copy of the order here but couldn't get it to copy and paste.
Here is is for you (as copied from here: http://www.txchia.org/txinpw.htm):
Nothing in the Public Hunting Lands Proclamation or State Parks Proclamation prohibits a person from possessing a concealed handgun, loaded or unloaded, under the authority of a concealed handgun license issued by this state or any other state. Persons carrying concealed handguns must comply with all concealed handgun laws.

The Executive Director reserves the right to prohibit the carrying of all firearms during certain events or in certain locations on Departmental lands.

This order is issued pursuant to Title 31, Texas Administrative Code, Sections 59.134(0(1) and 65.199, and is effective immediately.

Signed this the 8th day of July, 1998.

Andrew Sansom
Executive Director
Texas Parks and Wildlife Department
