I’ve camped in Bastrop State Park and had a good time tent camping but I’m itching to use my hammock. Any camping spots that have a lot of trees nearby the spots would be appreciated.

I'm looking to build a 2400sq ft metal shop with a mancave on my existing property. Does anyone have good experience with any builders in the Bastrop area for something like this? I'd like to find someone who could handle the build from start to finish if possible. I have reached out to a few but either get no response or end up being ghosted. Any feedback would be appreciated.

I have two mattresses I'm wanting to donate to an organization who provides services to those needing beds, or possibly animals needing beds.

Can anyone point me in the right direction? I'd hate to throw them away if they can be used.

I keep hearing what sounds like a big pack of coyotes making all kinds of loud sounds in the middle of the night right by my house. Does that mean they are eating something and fighting for it? It’s very excited yelling sounds… when I flash the light outside or husband goes out to look they get very quiet. Worried bc I’m getting more farm animals and I want them to be ok! I kind of hate coyotes.

Can we have a serious discussion about this. I want to start by saying, from what I can tell, DarPro seems like it provides good jobs to people here and contributes to local causes. This always comes up in discussions and is a good point. 

However this smell that pollutes our air seems like it should be unacceptable and preventable. 

I live in Riverside Grove and can smell it strongly on many nights. My 3 year old says, “Daddy it smells like poo outside!”

It’s quite unpleasant. 

I know it affects our property values. As a real estate agent I’ve had a number of buyers now tell me they don’t want to see homes anywhere near the Darling plant. 

What can we do about it? I’m filing it a TCEQ complaint like many others and will of course badger my local elected officials. 

I’d gladly collect signatures for a petition if it would make a difference.
