We are farther west in Texas

We left Lake Conroe and made it to Lake Medina Texas just outside Pipe Creek. We hit some rain on the way (makes sense as I washed the truck and trailer yesterday) but not too bad. Got here about 1 PM and set up our site. First things Bristol did was go hunting a Deer. There are tons of them around here as people feed them all the time. Will post some pictures of them later. It was around 68 today and the rain stayed away. More Later.

11-22 Well we have just been staying around the park as the weather has been a bit cool. Rained most of last night. Sure hope ther people down here in Texas say thanks to us for bringing the rain they need so bad. Sure enjoying this park as it is real nice and the people are real frendly. Today we went to a place called Natural Bridge Caverns and it was great. Will post pictures so you all can enjoy them like we did. Gloria went with me on the first Cavern toure but stayed behind on the second as it was a tough climb. Wow was it nice to see all the stuff. Will be doing the River Walk in San Antonio next week but not Sea World as we think the one in San Deigo is better.
12-25
Well today is Christmas  and we wish you all a Very Merry Christmas from Medina Lake Texas. The sun is out but still cool around 59 today. We will be having dinner at the activity Center with the people from the park at noon. Should be a good time. Then we will just sit around or nap and let the great dinner settle.

Mission San Jose

Mission Concepcion

The Alamo

Today was a nice day as the temp got up into the high 60's. We went into San Antonio to go to the Missions and the River Walk. First we stopped at Mission San Jose, It is a very large mission and great to go through. Then we stopped at Mission Concepcion, this one is smaller but just as nice and worth the stop. There are several more in the area but we did not go the them. We ended up at the Alamo and that was great except you could not take any picture in the mission. But nice to be in such a famous place. Then walked to the River Walk and took a boat ride along the walk. Not allot of shops but a ton of restaurants. The boat ride was nice as you get to see allot of the history of San Antonio. Then back to camp for dinner. Have to admit parking the big truck down town was not easy but we did finally find a spot. Glad we had a GPS...... will put some pictures up soon of these places.

12-31
Happy New Year to all our friends and family. Hope you new year is the best yet. We will be going out to the Activity center for awhile tonight to do some celebrating. Tomorrow we will start getting things ready to travel on Monday for Arizona. We have met some Great people here and have fun with them. Lee and Elaine even took us to the Mexican Market in San Antoino. It is lots of fun to walk around and look at all the cool stuff. They are from the same area I grew'up and live in Calif. We also met Rob and Ann and there cat Chloe and there friends Willie and Linda. And lots of others people from all over the country.
