Return to Texas 2009

     Maine has been a marvelous experience. Hopefully, the stories about the summer’s adventures will be posted soon. It is now September, and, once again Carol and Ed are ready to move on down the road. The plan is to spend about six weeks, seeing new things and visiting family and friends. As usual, the [...]

ALBANY, GA to APPLING, GA

     We will consider this campground a real gem. Wildwood Park is a county park, away from interstates, in northeast Georgia near Augusta. It is on a huge lake, great for bass fishing, with campsites that back right up to the water (but high enough to be out of danger).

Aloha, Hawaii

Saturday, October 4, 2008
     It was time to link our dreams of going on a cruise, with the opportunity to visit the 50th state in our travels around the United States. With the fifth-wheel safely tucked into its current home in Apache Junction, Arizona, we had Cricket’s Shuttle pick us up and drive us to the [...]

Corpus Christi, TX to Alamo, TX

Wednesday, October 29, 2008
The final leg of the trip was quick and easy. Here we are in Alamo, Texas just as far down south as you can get! Alamo Palms RV Resort is a very, very good place to spend the winter. The weather is warm, though very humid, and the folks are friendly.

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.

Junction, TX to Hondo, TX

Saturday, October 25, 2008
Hondo, Texas is another of the many crossroad towns in Texas. The welcome sign is very interesting.

Benson, AZ to Deming, NM

Tuesday, October 21, 2008
Continuing east on Interstate 10, we left Arizona and entered the “Land of Enchantment”, New Mexico. Lots and lots of pecan and walnut trees lined the highway. We saw a Blimp advertising Airship Ventures. That might be fun. 

SOUTH TO THE LONE STAR STATE-Apache Jct, AZ to Benson, AZ

Monday, October 20, 2008
Once again, it’s “Adios” to Superstition Sunrise. We love this place but still want to find more new things in this great country. Our first stop of the day was just outside Tucson, where we met Mila and Dave Emerson. After a visit to their daughter’s home, they took us to a [...]

Pecos, TX to Junction, TX

Thursday, October 23, 2008
The Junction KOA in Junction, Texas was this day’s destination. It was another pleasant day with easy driving. Since the campground is on the bank of the North Llano River, we decided to make this a two-night stopover. The first order of business was to purchase Ed’s Texas fishing license. Yea! He’s [...]

Cottonwood, AZ to Apache Junction, AZ

Thursday, September 25, 2008
     Before noon, we were back at Superstition Sunrise RV Resort where we spent last winter. In fact, since we rented the site for a year we settled on to our very own spot on Marilyn Monroe Avenue.
