A great day

Today we went and drove around the area . We went to a RV supply place and I bought a couple of items Then went  to a Montana dealer to see about light bulbs. They didn't have them Had to order from Montana. Then made a stop at camping world. Didn't get any thing there. Since we were in Mission we drove over to where we will camp in Feb. Meet the lady that is the manager. She used to run Johnny Appleseed in Ft Wayne. Then we started back Stopped at whataburger for lunch.. Good. Then got back to trailer. I took a shower and then we left for church. Real good service. Meet a nice couple from Mo. The man took me over to meet the pastor. Had a good chat with him. Not sure we will go to this church when we move to mission. Depends on how far it is Might have to look for another one. If there is one. Got back and called Gary talked to him for a bit. We have some mail so he will send it next weekend. He doesn't have time to do it during the week as he gets home so late. Well guess that's about it for tonight. Think tomorrow we are going to flea market. I think Eli wants some NOT  Later  all Ron Thelma and Eli

Another nice day

Today we went the neighbor lady to a jam session. It was at a campground just down the road. Nice campground. Not to expensive either. We had lunch there and then listened to the people jam. It was really neat to hear all the people sing and play their instruments. It lasted about 2 hrs or a little more. When we got back Thelma did a couple of loads of laundry It was a really nice day. Got up to the mid 70;s It is 68 right now. Think it showed snowing in Fort Wayne. They are predicting some rain here next week. They need it It is so dry. Think tomorrow we are going to a Montana dealer not too far away to get a light bulb for the trailer. It is a 12 volt one Also need a nut to hold the shade on. Lost it on the way. We have looked all over for it and haven't found it yet. They are having a RV show here next week at the next little town. We will go see it  Can;t afford one of the new ones but like to look. Guess that's about it for tonight  Oh We went to a Shoneys to eat tonight I had the seafood bar and Thelma had a sirloin steak Ground that is. Eli will have the leftovers. I also had a little piece of chicken that we brought home. Later  Ron Thelma and Spoiled little Eli

Great day

Today we went to a pizza place with a few other campers from here. We had a great time visiting. While there I asked about different places since these people have been here a few years. The one lady offered to show us where some of the places were. We went to a visitors center and watched a couple of videos. One was on sugar cane farming and the other was on birds and other wildlife. We want to go to a wildlife place. Will probably wait till we are at the Mission campground as it is closer to the wildlife  center. We also went to a Walmart. Got only a couple of things. Needed some Ice for the cooler. Also found a Lutheran church in the next little town. They have a Saturday night service. That's the way we like it. Mo Synod. We shall see how friendly they are. According to their website they have a lot of Winter Texans at that church. Tomorrow we are going to another campground and eat lunch and listen to a jam session. They have a lot of them down here. Well I guess that's about it for tonight  Later all Ron Thelma and Eli

orange groves

Boy I had a heck of a time tonight trying to get the blog posted. I thought I posted last night but it's not there. So Yesterday we just rested We did not go anywhere. Sat and talked to the neighbors on both side Great people. Today Thelma did laundry still have a load to do. We drove by an orange grove today here is a picture

Really full of oranges. Across the road was a field of cabbage. Couldn't get a picture of it. We took a propane tank to get filled. It is supposed to cool down here next week. Not sure just how low. Tomorrow we are going to a pizza place for lunch with the group from here. Never heard of this place We shall see how it is Guess that's about it for tonight Later all Ron Thelma and Eli

We made it

We finally got to the valley. This campground is not too bad. Not what we wanted. We are at rollin homes in Donna. We were going to one Bob Gurney recomended. That was rollin homes except it is in Mission, Tx. When I got online and check the Donna one came up. I couldn't remember where
Bob said it was so made a reservation here. We are only staying here a month and then moving to the one in Mission. We had a pretty good drive today. Sure not much to see. Scrub trees along the road and cattle a lot of places. We got here pretty early this afternoon. Got all set up. Not sure if we will put the awning out or not. Will wait a couple of days to see how windy it gets here. We will sleep in in the morning. Have been waiting for that. Not sure what we will do tomorrow. I need to get a bottle tank filled so will probably do that  Then maybe drive around and see what is here Guess that's about it for tonight  Later all Oh its' 68 here Was 72 when we got here. Hope is stays like this  Ron Thelma and Eli

Victoria, Tx

We are in a nice campground for the night  Called the lazy longhorn RV park. Got here about 12:30 The work camper came and cut off some branches so I could get in the spot. The trees are nice but sometimes get in the way. They had popcorn and soda at 300 so we went up and got some Thelma did some laundry. Then came back and ate supper and at 6 they had Ice Cream for 50 cents a dip. That was some good desert. I took a shower when we got back Thelma took hers when we got here. Tomorrow we will get to Donna About 200 miles I think. Will be glad to get there. Hope the people there are as friendly as they are at this campground. Really nice folks Well that's about it for tonight Later  Ron Thelma and Eli

La Grange Tx

We are at the Colorado Landing Campground in La Grange. We are here for only one night. Tomorrow we are only traveling about 150 Miles and then on Monday we will do about 200 to get to Donna. We are going to sleep in in the morning. We are both pretty tired. The campground we  are going to has a hot tub Might try that out. Today was just driving. If I was rich I would hire somebody to drive for me. We stopped a McDonalds this morning for breakfast It was close to where we camped last night. Then stopped a Subway along the road and also got fuel for the truck. This was just a little town. Subs were good. Hey Bob can you find out where Don is going If he is close we will look them up. Don't know if Pat and Jerry are going to Texas or not. Well guess thats about it for tonight  Tomorrow is another On the road again day
