Today was a nice day with highs of about 78F, this morning started out cloudy but then the sky cleared off and it turned into a beautiful day but was windy (hey, we’re in Texas and it always seems to be windy here!!). This morning I talked to our daughter Kel and my sister Pat so got caught up on what is happening with them.

We drove over to Livingston to get fuel, filled up at $2.089 at HEB, which was a good deal as every place else was $2.159/gal. After that we drove back and up along Lake Livingston to Trinity and while there we checked out a park there that I had looked at in the directory and we’re sure glad I didn’t pick it, it was pretty crappy and the roads in the park were terrible – bone rattling to drive through! We did a loop back home and stopped in Onalaska at the grocery store to pick up a couple of things and checked out another park across the river from here on the way by. It is a new park but the sites aren’t as nice, the roads are very narrow and it is right on the highway so again we are glad I picked this one.

When we got back I went for a walk and John went for a bike ride, we talked to our neighbours for a while, and just took life easy.

As always, today was another great gift of a day in the sunny, but very windy, south and we look forward to another good day tomorrow.
