On July 8, 1998, Texas Parks and Wildlife Executive Director, Andrew Sansom signed Executive Director Order No. 98-001 which reads as follows:
Nothing in the Public Hunting Lands Proclamation or State Parks Proclamation prohibits a person from possessing a concealed handgun, loaded or unloaded, under the authority of a concealed handgun license issued by this state or any other state. Persons carrying concealed handguns must comply with all concealed handgun laws.

Just be aware that you cannot carry on Corps Of Engineer Lakes or grounds.

Thanks, this is what I found also. I just wasn't sure if it was still relevant.
Also, thanks txinvestigator, I did not know that. I am planning a trip to Huntsville state park and from what I can see, there are no COE grounds.
