Finally, Paradise in sight

It is Sunday and we are up early and on our way through the Dallas , Waco and the Austin area . We seem to be on a mission to get past San Antonio also, but traffic has picked up.. The last few hours of the long day take its toll.. We make our final night on the road at a "picnic /parking area on 77 South of Corpus Christi.. Texas picnic /parking areas have paved parking , picnic tables and lights but no buildings or rest rooms. A couple of campers and some truckers share the area but it is not as crowded or noisy as a regular rest area.
Miles traveled on Sunday -449 ..







It is always exciting to know your are finally in south Texas when you see the Palm Trees in the median of the roadway. It makes you smile to know you will soon be in your winter home..









Seeing all your friends greeting you with the never ending "Welcome Back'....Lots of hugs, waves and handshakes.. Soon we are on the frontage road coming up to the gate.We can see the sign. Miles today 125..Arrive at 10:30 AMTurning into the gate..Looking to see what has changed. Now we see our home , the one on the corner # 378....Now comes 3-4 days of opening up the house ,getting things set up and unloading the motor home. We must ready the coach for its winter rest at Dixie Storage where she will be under cover for the winter.











Now we take a break even if the work isn't all done, there is always tomorrow, we must do what we come here for..................................................check it out.
Maryann and Dick are some of the regular afternoon "school of fish" that show up most days.










Hot Tub off to the right is a good ending to pool visit.


The path to pool gate always smells good. the flowers are pretty and hardy.



They even grow in the cracks in the cement. It is good to be back...
