EL DORADO, KS TO CHOCTAW, OK

      Still rainy, today, but getting warmer. We took off our heavy jackets back in Kansas, and then shed the warm sweaters at the Oklahoma border.

Hondo, TX to Corpus Christi, TX

Sunday, October 26, 2008
We’ve often heard about Corpus Christi ( maybe during hurricane season?), so it was time to see it for ourselves. We checked in to Hatch RV Park, it’s showing its age (aren’t we all?), but nice enough, and started out to be tourists.

Benson, AZ to Deming, NM
