Travel Day frozen water Texas here we come

Well got up at 5:30 this morning a little late for me especially on a travel day. So not thinking I didn't  wake Bill up at 5:45 like I usually do on travel days. we like to leave around 7-7:30. WEll that didn't happen. He got up about 6:30. good thing we didn't need water for anything this morning it was 24 degrees out and everything was froze so after coffee and cereal BIll had to get out the little heater and thaw the water so we could pack it up. Took a little bit. After all is done and packed away finally on the road a little after 8. Had to stop for gas so we stooped at the THING..which is kinda a truck stop with a huge store. I just went in to the Dunkin for coffee. Yes Marge I Have all the time in the world to check out the store. LOL..but when we are going to the next place we like to get there at a reasonable time. That store is HUGE..I Could have have spent at least an hr in there. maybe next time.
Nice sunny day and not much traffic til we got close to El Paso. I hate traffic people are stupid drivers especially when theres construction.
Got to Mission RV around 2. We like this place and one of these times we are going to stay for more than one night. Great indoor pool and hot tub. I Should have taken advantage of it but I really don't like to swim alone. SO i chose to do laundry instead. What was I thinking LOL I'll regret that decision tomorrow.
Sat outside fro a bit to enjoy the sun. had dinner and just chilled in front of the TV. HAve to take advantage of tv when it actually comes in. which isn't often in most campgrounds.
That was our day
Have a great day...

    You are making good time. In the cooler weather we like to store our hoses the night before so we don't have to deal with them in the morning, especially if frozen.

Rainy Morning Oulet Mall

Well Friday started out rainy but turned into a nice afternoon. After breakfast we went to the campground store. This is another really nice campground. We enjoy it here every year. Really nice clubhouse. Three different sitting rooms with Tvs. Lot of books to trade and read. Play areas and a craft area for the kids. Pool is huge. Not open yet but we enjoyed it when Billy Anna and the kid were with us a couple of years ago. Diane and I decide it was a good day to leave the hubbies behind and go shopping. We've been wanting to do this for a while. Had a great time. Spent some money. LOL All on the grandkids of course and nothing for ourselves. Had lunch at subway. All in all it was a good shopping day. Back to the camper to rest for a bit and have dinner. Decided against a fire again tonight so played some Mexican Train. Diane can't get enough of it and they're leaving on Sunday so this might be the last game for awhile. I won one game and Larry won the ot...

Florida here we come

Tuesday was a nothing day. Went to the store to pick up a few things for dinner,and the post office to mail the parking ticket. Had a nice Steak Dinner and got ready to move on. Wendesday was finally getting to Florida to see my big brothers and sister in laws. Went through Mississippi, Alabama then finally into Florida. It was a little bit longer drive then we like but couldn't really find any place to stay for the night. It was a very interesting drive through the panhabdle seein a lot of damage from Hurricane Michael. I'd much rather have a snow storm. The damage was unreal. Unfortunetly I didn't have my phone ready for pictures for the houses down and the rest area. The campground we wanted to go to was closed til at least Sept. because of the Hurricane. It was a nice travel day. First time since we left that I didn't have shoes and socks on. If you know me you know how much I love my flip flops. I think finally for our last month of traveling...

We had a great day yesterday. Weather was good. Chilly but the sun was shining. Left for Old Town San Diego about 10:00. Takes a little over an hr. Nice sunny drive. Went to the Visitor Center first very informative guy thats from the Bronx. Told us hes been to buffal and loved the wings of course. Then off to the train Museum. What a great place. wish I could post pics. Someday I'll figure it out. Anyway it was great to see the way it is all set up. Mountains all around, a baseball diamond with red white and blue fire works a drive in theater showing The Blob. Could have watched the whole movie if I wanted to. It was Steve McQeen's first movie. I remember seeing it long ago. All in all it was great place. Basically just walked down the street went into some of the stores and of course bought stuff I don't need. Went to the Whaley House. Diane and I took the $8 tour. Suppose to be the most famous haunted house in America. But I think all the haunted places say that. ...
