MONDAY THE SECOND WEEK OF FUN

I can't believe we are into our second week. Seems forever ago since I posted, I meant to post every day but it just didn't happen.

We are happily camping at Goose Island State Park in Rockport TX. On the way down from Ruston LA our bedroom window blew out and we had glass all over. They used ordinary glass in our emergency bedroom window. Probably so we could break it easier, who knows but we were able to get it fixed in Shreveport. It took us 6 hours to go 120 miles and we ended up staying at Lake Livingston State Park in TX on the way here.

We are right on the Ocean, Jim can fish 20 feet from the camper, we love it and look to move down two spots to the end. Won't feel so crowded on the end. Our first day here another camper was within 2 feet of us - we each get a picnic table in a shelter, it's really neat, we have a 1000 foot pier within walking distance.

The wind has been blowing constantly and I don't know if that's how it is but with the temp in the lower 60es, I don't mind.

We found a Lutheran Church, Holy Cross and Larry Probst from Remer was there also. Beautiful new church. What stained glass windows.

There is a mansion called "Fulton House" or something that I plan on touring Tue. with another camper from Mass, Angie. They are leaving on Thurs and I mentioned I was going and she said she wanted to go too. Rockport and right next to Fulton much like Mpls and St Paul.

We also stopped after Church at the hardware store and picked up a ladder, washing wand and some wonderful cleaner that took all the yuck off the camper. It looks great.

Judy and Larry Probst came over for a visit, they are members of our church in Remer and have an 06 motor home, will be fun to see it. A Winnebago.

It's laundry day today and according to the weather channel, rain is in the
for cast. It's OK, we don't care, lots to do. Books to read and dogs to walk. Scarves to knit and I found my embroidery so I am excited.

We drove about 3 miles from here, they have an oak tree that is over 1000 years old. It is so huge it is unbelieveable. Also saw a bunch of whooping cranes, they were nearly extinct some time ago.

We went on a rainy day to the Aransas Wildlife Preserve. Didn't see as much as we would on a sunny day. Will go back. With our America the Beautiful pass it was free.
