    Day 16: Lake Corpus Cristi, TX: Feliz cumpleaƱos

    Byadmin March 17, 2023

    T’was a dark and stormy night. Whoa! Pump the brakes and don’t pump up the jam! It was neither dark nor stormy. The cold front did go through, the wind did pick up, but there was no rain. We slept in. And that ends our story. Obviously that can’t be the case as everyday needs…

    Day 15: Lake Casa Blanca International State Park: Muy caliente

    Byadmin March 16, 2023

    Good sleep except for the small details like the temperature went up over night and opening the window blinds to let in air meant letting in light. It is not dark here at all. So we turned on the A/C and chose the noise over the light. Morning walk was basically the same as yesterday…

    Day 14: Lake Casa Blanca International State Park: I never make plans that far ahead.

    Byadmin March 15, 2023March 15, 2023

    Lovely sleep. Not too warm. Nice morning walk around some of the trails. Did not see wildlife. Did see signs of wildlife like furry poo (the kind coyotes make, not the kind people with stuffed tails attached to them make although I have no direct experience with that). Saw deer poo too. Various tracks of…

    Dat 13: Lake Casa Blanca International State Park: Sleeping in Fajitas

    Byadmin March 14, 2023March 15, 2023

    Chilly morning (still not complaining) and no extended sleep in. Morning walk was basically the same route as yesterday. The tide was high (I’m going to be your number one) so there was not much beach. After returning we slowly set about getting ready to depart. We left just before 1000 and headed for the…

    Day 12: Mustang Island State Park, TX: I’m not complaining, but

    Byadmin March 13, 2023

    The wind picked up last night as we were approaching sleepy time. This caused a fair amount of van movement. Noticeable, tolerable. But sadly, the wind was at the front end of a cold front. Slept in, perhaps rocked like a baby all night. Have I ever mentioned that sometimes being in the van feels…

    Day 11: Mustang Island State Park, Mustang Island, TX. Not all that are lost wander.

    Byadmin March 12, 2023

    Well, the wind blew something fierce last night, but thanks to heat exhaustion we slept pretty well. I’m not complaining about heat. Just how relatively unaccustomed we are to it right now. With the change to DST this morning, I got a relatively late start to the morning walk. I ventured out along the various…

    Day 10: Goose Island State Park, Lamar, TX. Spring forward

    Byadmin March 11, 2023

    In the middle of the night, or, sometime before us clamming up for the night and emerging the next day, we got neighbours. Our Deluxe Premium sight was back to Premium. No worries, we were heading out today. Morning walk was the opposite of yesterday. I went east on the beach rather than west. In…

    Day 9: Jamaica Bay, RV Resort, Galveston, TX. It’s just a jump to the left

    Byadmin March 10, 2023

    Pretty good night sleep. Was quiet at our end of the RV “Resort”. We ran the A/C through the night cause tin can is hot. Don’t believe the propaganda, there is no useful insulation in these vans. Morning walk was along the beach. It was about a half km to get to the beach and…

    Day 8: Jamaica Beach, TX: Lazy trip on the river

    Byadmin March 9, 2023

    3 AM, I feel zen. Imagine it is 0342 (that’s 3:42 a.m.) and it’s muggy and hot. You are plugged into electricity and have this massive rarely used air conditioner on your roof. Who wouldn’t wake up their spouse and turn on the A/C? We all would, it’s just fair game! We joined the chorus…

    Day 7: Sea Rim State Park: All cravings must be satisfied. Maybe.

    Byadmin March 8, 2023March 9, 2023

    (now with pictures) Caddo Lake is a pretty cool park.  The site that Mrs Milddogs picked for night #2 was great. It was so cool backing onto the bayou, even if it lacked gators. We had some rain in the night but nothing that woke us up.  We had discussed an earlier than usual for…
