Padre Island, Texas, USA. Padre Island National Seashore Tourism. Every March, like clockwork, students cram into cars and head to South Padre Island for spring break fun in the sun and 24-hour beach bashes. While the island is still home to spring breakers for just over a month, the area has seen a rebirth of sorts as a popular family vacation destination. That's because South Padre, or SPI, delivers with wide sandy beaches, sparkling blue water and a mixture of fun activities for kids of all ages. But there's more to SPI than beach revelry. Kiteboarding is a favorite pastime and several sports outfitters offer deep-sea fishing trips and dolphin-watching excursions. The consistently warm weather also seduces northern Texans seeking refuge from the cold. And it's understandable: Just a day's drive from major Texas cities like Houston and Dallas, this seaside paradise is right in the state's own backyard.

PADRE ISLAND By RICHARD MERRILL DALTON, JR. Robert Evans, a Vietnam veteran returns home to Corpus Christi, Texas. The Johnson Administration has opened the new National Seashore on the barrier Island which protects the mainland from the ravages of the Gulf of Mexico. He is given the opportunity to find himself as a National Park Ranger. After finishing his college education at Texas A&I University in neighboring Kingsville, Texas he meets and marries Glenda Strahan from Lockhart, Texas. This chapter deals with a description of the park. It's windy roads to keep traffic slow and allow the visitor a greater view of the scenic area. The Ranger station is described along with the rest of the park. Robert starts his position as a seasonal Ranger with the USNPS. He attends the orientation sessions given by the staff of the park. He is informed that his primary function is law enforcement and drug interdiction. He is also teamed up for his first encounter with Tommy McPhearson, an overzealous cop in the uniform of a Park Ranger. He re-defines the image from his cowboy boots to his mirrored sunglasses. J.J. LaCour is man who is among other things a self made pilot who has fallen on hard times. His wife has left him and accused him of dealing in narcotics. She is correct! He flies his little Piper aircraft down the Texas coast to Mexico and back to Houston, Dallas, San Antonio, and even New Orleans. Robert Evans goes on his first patrol with the resident Park Technician. Tommy McPherson. Tommy is the archetype small town cop with to much power and an inflated reputation. He fits the description from his cowboy boots to his mirrored sunglasses. He is supposed to intimidate Robert with his prowess. Robert finds it disgusting. Robert returns home to report his evening with Tommy. Robert Evans has roots in Corpus Christi, this chapter shows his attachment to the area and points out that he is dedicated to the Park Service. He knows the lifestyle of the section of Corpus Christi known as the bluff in a way that outsiders and northerners could never grasp. Robert is preparing to go back to work and he spends the morning before work which is from three that afternoon to eleven that night trying to get hold of himself. He is not afraid, he really wants to teach. He has flashbacks of his experiences along the Laguna Madre and the people he knows there. His house and his wife. The saga of his boat that was given to him by his father. He flashes back to his attachments for Corpus Christi and how it is an unusual and special place to him. Robert goes to work for his second shift only to find that McPhearson and Tankersly had made a big bust on the beach and had hauled a large number of people into town to place them in jail for narcotics use. He has to use a big Dodge power wagon as a patrol vehicle. He is augmented into going down the beach for about thirty miles to an isolated site where he rescues a couple stranded because their vehicle is in the surf. He sees an aircraft and it is dropping marijuana in the surf. The pilot shoots at him. he gets the people back to safety but notices that they are not above suspicion. Mondays and Tuesdays are his normal day off but they were usually spent in court if he had made any arrests at all during the previous weekend. He went to court as the arresting officer even though he was the junior. Bruce Tankersly, the chief of law enforcement couldn't make it. He said that he had family problems and begged off from Jack Reed, the Chief Ranger. Robert goes to court and knows that Bill didn't come because they had made a shaky bust. The defense attorney cuts Robert to pieces and has the evidence suppressed, the case is thrown out. Robert goes home and on his way stops at a local dive for a beer. He is given a Spanish silver piece as change. He realizes what it is when he gets home. It was taken from the island in violation of the Texas Antiquities act. Robert was placed on dispatcher duty by
