Itinerary Done

 

Yes, I finally just took a day, sat down, and got it all planned and reserved.  We will stay the first 4 days after leaving here, in Wallisville, Texas.  It is just a small place right before you cross the State line into Louisiana.  Next we will be stopping for a couple of days in Slidell, Louisiana, to hopefully visit with my nephew and his family.  I haven’t heard from them yet so, this may not be in the plans, but we are hoping.  Next is Gautier, MS for a couple of days.  Hoping to meet Judy, if she has the time.  We then will take a small side trip to Montgomery, AL. to meet with a couple I have been talking to for a couple of years through  my blog (old blog on mytripjournal and new blog on blog spot).  You may remember me asking for your prayers for Judy, who has cancer.  This is the lady in Alabama we are going to see.  We can’t wait to spend a couple of days with these great people.  Next we will make a stop in Milton, Florida.  My little brother’s good friend, Harry lives in Pensacola, Florida, and we hope to at least go and eat with he and his wife, Kay.  After a short stay in Milton, we will head on over to Lake City, Florida for a month’s stay.  I will be writing on the road if possible, and will give you more info on our parks, etc..

It has been up in the 80’s here all week so, it was a big surprise when the temps dipped down into the high 30’s last night.  Had been staying up in high 40’s or low 50’s.  Spring is definitely here though.  The grass is starting to green up..  It’s much harder to tell by the trees here.  Some hold their leaves, and only lose them when the new ones come on.

Want to welcome my 2 new followers.  The first is Wayne and Roberta. Check out their site.  I have been following them for quite a while.   The second is Mike and Gina.  I know they have a site, but I can’t get the URL to insert.  Don’t know what is up with that.  But, welcome to you all.  I hope you enjoy the ride.

We went  to Uvalde on Monday and had the oil changed in the truck.  Does it get on your nerves how the service depts. always say “you are next in line”, “and we will have you out of here in 30 minutes”, and then 2 hours later you are still there?  Really drives me crazy!!!!

 

They did have a very nice waiting room, but come on…. :(

I took a picture of all the flags that Uvalde had flying for Presidents Day.  They really take this Holiday seriously.

Like Nellie, I have been thinking very strongly about not blogging so much.  I have come to a point where it all sounds the same to me, and I think I need a break.  I will continue to have some updates, but not near as often.  No excuses, just don’t want to do it.

We did take another drive this week.  A couple of weeks ago we drove the 3 sisters, and I told Don at the time that we needed to do them in reverse so, that is what we did.  This time we started in Uvalde on 55, headed to Camp Wood, then hit 335 over to 41 and back on 336.  We didn’t back track on 337, we had done that before.  It was just as beautiful going this way as it was going the other.

We still have been playing games really often.  I will miss this so much when we leave here.  Not all parks even have club houses for use, let alone schedule things for you to do in them.  Hopefully we will find some along the way this summer.

 

Our dear friends, Marrolyn and Al are pulling out in the morning.  She has been feeling really bad, and wants to see her family Doctor.  We pray all is well with her, and that they have a safe trip home.  They live in Childress, Texas.  Up close to OK.

We are having another potluck breakfast in the morning.  I am taking donuts this time.  There is always soooo much food, but it is a lot of fun to get together with everyone.

 

That’s it for today.  Later…  :)
