reading in the heat of summer ... we know what you 
need ... details on Passport to Texas ...

Passport to Texas from Texas Parks and Wildlife

Looking for some great summer reading? Look no further 
than the August issue of Texas Parks and Wildlife 
magazine. Managing Editor Charles Lohrmann. 
 
Well, our August issue has several articles that describe 
activities that are either good for August or for the fall 
months. So you can either plan a getaway for a hot summer 
afternoon or a cooler fall day. And we have a good one 
called Dog Friendly Parks, which describes about a 
dozen destinations where you can take your dog and 
go swimming or go hiking or just enjoy the outdoors 
with your favorite pet. And then also we have planning 
for the hunting season, which is basically a public hunting 
primer - access to public lands throughout the state. 
And then we have an article about the largest saltwater 
fishing tournament on South Padre Island, and it's a big 
event that attracts individual anglers and families alike. 
And one other thing that I found interesting was an 
article called The Quail Whisperer by Henry Chapel, and it 
was about A.S. Jackson who was one of the first biologists to 
advocate creative management for Bobwhite quail. :58
