Ty's Take

Two separate reminders this week that the roads and trails around Texas County don't forgive carelessness. A man ended up in Springfield hospital after an ATV accident north of Willow Springs, the kind of thing that happens when you're moving fast through rough country and something goes wrong in a hurry. Same day, law enforcement made a DWI arrest here in Houston, which is its own cautionary tale about judgment. This county's got a lot of open space and a lot of ways to get hurt if you're not paying attention, whether you're on four wheels or four legs or behind the wheel of a truck on a county road. Most folks around here learn early that the outdoors doesn't care much about your plans.
