Warm and sunny in South Texas!

We arrived in Victoria, Texas on Monday afternoon. It was cloudy and cool. By Tuesday morning the rain was falling not hard but steady. At least our rig and truck got "rinsed" off some..... We spent Tuesday doing some shopping and of course a Walmart trip!

Mid-afternoon our friends from Great Bend arrived! We were glad to see them and enjoyed visiting with them. I fixed meatloaf for dinner and we played 3 games of Joker which the guys whopped us good.... oh well...there's always next time!

We left this morning around 8:30 to finish our last leg of our journey south. It was cloudy and cool but no rain.... by the time we arrived in Mercedes the sun was shining and NOT a cloud in the sky! YAHOOO!!! In fact, it got up to around 65 today.... beautiful !!!!!

They have had a lot of rain for this area so our grass site was very soft and we had to park on the cement patio for the time being... and then we will move over when our grassy area dries out.... I'm guessing on Friday...... when we were here before we were about 3 streets north ..... this is an older park and the sites are kind of close together and the streets are not that large.... Bill had to jackknife the rig into the space. Our friends, Dennie and Karen are across the street and down about 3 spaces from us. Other friends will arrive on Friday I think....

The weather forecast is great! It is to be around 75 on Sat. and then turn cooler with a chance of rain again on Sunday...maybe....but we will take this weather!

We will be going out and doing some scouting around tomorrow! Can't wait to get some fresh produce at the flea market!

So we are here and set up for a couple of days at least!

Until next time!
