Deep in the Heart of Texas

Here we are at last in Livingston, Texas, where we'll stay until the end of the month.  The leaves are just starting to change, like late August at home.  When we arrived 10 days ago, the forecast was for daytime temps between 60 and 80, with nights between 40 and 60.  Now it's cold and wet, with days in the 40's and nights in the 20's and 30's.  I thought we came south to enjoy the warm weather - yikes!     

 

We're staying at Rainbow's End RV Park, which is one of the Escapee campgrounds.  Escapees is the premier full-time RV'er support organization in America, with over 30,000  active members.   This campground is their national headquarters.  Their mail forwarding service is one of the largest in the country, and they will be handling ours.  They will forward our mail to whatever address we ask them to, so regardless of where we're staying we can get our mail.

These pictures are of our site.  We're at the end of a row, and there's pretty much open area, both beside and behind us.  Campground is nice.

 

This week we're going to do our residency stuff so we have a place to register vehicles and vote.  We've been seriously planning where to go next.  We're thinking, work our way south to Galveston, then up the border through Mission, El Paso and west on Interstate 10 to Arizona until mid April, then start our way back home after a full timer rally via Tennessee.  We plan to be back in Rockford before May 15th
