So it seems that back when Teach was a young man trying to get through college and get his degree. Before Mrs. Teach and the young Teachsters were around he decided to save some bucks.
So instead of living in the dorms or in an apartment he decided to just camp out down on the north fork of the Brazo's river a few miles from the outskirts of that sleepy little Texas college town.
He set up his tent not far from a bridge in a grove of trees and was enjoying the good life of the outdoors. He slept under a leanto and caught fish and rabbits for dinner over the campfire. And all of it totally rent free.
He was all alone but for the sounds of the coyotes howling and locusts chirring away in the mesquite thickets___ and Clarence.
Now Clarence liked the quiet life too. So much so that he had actually bought property on the other side of the river and built himself a nice little adobe ranch home.
He too liked to fish the river and take walks along the banks looking for arrowheads and such and enjoying life in the country. He especially liked sitting out on his porch overlooking the slow moving river as it meandered peacefully through the Texas countryside.
He didn't like it when he looked out at his utopia one day and saw that someone had set up camp directly across from his back porch.
He yelled at Teach across the river "hey you, you can't camp there."
Yes I can Teach said it is public land and I am part of the public."
Now Clarence knew Teach was right but he still did not like it one bit.
He tried a different approach and yelled and asked Teach to please move down river so he wouldn't have to look at him. But Teach, knowing his rights, refused.
"Can't you just move far enough away that I can't see you and your camp?"
"Nope" Teach said. "I like it here."
The banter went on across the river for days. Clarence would do things like play loud music, beat on pots and pans and shine lights to annoy Teach.
It was to no avail . Teach was not about to leave.
Clarence was at his wits end. After all he had paid to be where he was had worked hard to make his property special and now some "vagrant college punk" was ruining it.
Now Teach, well he wasn't happy either. All the noise was giving him a headache and the spot lights throughout the night weren't letting him get much sleep. He was cranky but, Clarence was just plain mad.
So everyday Clarence and Teach would stand on the sandy shores of the Brazos river and hurl insults and threats back and forth at each other.
Then one day------------------
TO BE CONTINUED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
