    “Floodways, “floodplains,” … meh, none of this was/is news to the people who operated these camps for profit over the decades. They have a documented history of gambling that the worst of Mother Nature will not converge with the worst of local, state, and federal government.
    Quite often, the camp owners win, but every so often, they don’t, and the payment is made in the blood of others and sometimes their own.
    Meanwhile, back in Austin the political Eyes of Texas avert their gaze, instead choosing to focus on bathroom bills (Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick) and the implementation of forced HPV vaccinations (championed by former Governor Rick Perry).

    So it goes.
