That was a blast. By the way, I don't recall seeing you on the POB board recently, or did you change your sign in name in the last couple of years?

J.D.

I bet that was a fun seminar.

I decided to try my hand at civil engineering design a couple of years ago and have not done any surveying for awhile and stopped going to the POB board. I need to get back on there and at least keep up to date.

Land surveying has a way of getting in your blood and I'm sure I will return to it someday but I enjoy learning new engineering stuff for now.

mr surveyor, I believe you nailed it.

Texas has many unique land laws because of our history.

It is very possible that we have met, I am in the Houston area. Did you make it down to The Woodlands last year?


Welcome aboard!!

If the James River is a "navigable river or stream" it is state property and boaters are legally able to stay on the water. The banks are private property and you would be tresspassing.

This article makes it appear that the river is public property.

This punk is just asking for trouble even if it is a private stream, which it appears not to be.

If he keeps this up, one of these days he is going to suprise the wrong fisherman.

I wonder if the Navy gets wind of this article, if they will give him grief about it?
