Whitney,Texas....a small resort town in the central part of the state. In the summer we have many visitors here for our beautiful lake:



And in the winter we get bunches of "snowbirds" from the northern states like Minnesota and Michigan who stay here to avoid the cold at home. It's a pretty small place,pop. around 2000,and we only recently got a McDonalds which really caused a stir. TeddyR
There's a number of Army corps of engineer parks around the lake and our State Park:



In fact the lake is our biggest attraction. Otherwise we're just a sleepy little Texas town.

How has the lake survived the drought?  Whenever it rains here in NJ for at least a year I always think of TX... and have often wished they'd had gotten the rain instead of us.  Lately, we were heading towards drought, but we've had a lot of rain in the last few weeks.

If it's true what they say, that GOD created us in His image, then why should we not love creating, and why should we not continue to do so, as carefully and ethically as we can, on whatever scale we're capable of?

     The choice is simple; refuse to create, and refuse to grow, or build, with care and love.

Last year we almost didn't.....the lake was almost 15 feet below normal,the safe swimming areas were gone and fishing was lousy. The town barely survived and I still wonder how we did. Luckily over the winter we had a lot of rain and so it's up to normal and beautiful again. Business was past depressing....the convenience store I work at is close to the lake so our business dried up right along with the lake. If it wasn't such a deep one the whole thing might have disappeared. That's a hazard of being in a resort town....we really depend on tourism for our summer profits.

Know for its historical beauty, its many lovely parks and squares, Paula Deen, and Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil.

The park bench scenes from FORREST GUMP were filmed here, as was the upcoming Asylum Picture's release ABRAHAM LINCOLN VS THE ZOMBIES (not to be likely confused with ABRAHAM LINCOLN: VAMPIRE HUNTER). The 70's killer worms classic SQUIRM was filmed just outside of town in Port Wentworth; as I've mentioned before the drug store where the Yankee found a worm in his egg cream unfortunately is gone with the wind.  Bluesad

Best of all: it's "officially" America's Most Haunted City, has several creepy cemeteries, and is one of Linda Blair's Scariest Places on Earth.

I live in a small community called Glen Rose about 10 miles from my hometown of Malvern Arkansas.

 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malvern,_Arkansas

I did got to Jr high and High School with  Billy Bob Thornton.   Frank Bonner (his real name is Boers)  knew two of my older brothers, one of which got a big surprise when
watching Equinox at the local drive in.  Jerry Van Dyke married a Malvern  lady back in the late 70's He owned several businesses including a movie theater in another nearby town called Benton

My family has been in Malvern for 142years. My great grand father Homesteaded there in 1870.

We have a pretty little town also called Glen Rose here in Texas. Home of one of the state's prettiest:

courthouses.
