We have had a mild, polite fall. Then, a few days before leaving
it just had to snow.
Ohio sucked. While it wasn't really snowing, the roads were
dumping ample quantities of salt water all over the motorhome and
toad. Didn't find a chance to take a nap and got to Cave City,
Kentucky pretty tired. But had a nice walk with the dogs and
slept well.
There is a very cool rest area well situated for a nap. It is a
Tennessee Valley Authority solar site. They have truck parking
and a separate section for bus and RVs. There is excellent dog
walking.
At that site they have a dog park with an agility track. Cool.
The North Little Rock KOA is darn near full. Not sure why, but it
is. Got a decent site and we're comfortable.
Had a problem with the brake controller and had a side-trip to Legacy
Ford once in Rosenberg.
On arrival I presented Matthew with his childhood transformer
toy. And that led to this.
We headed out to Galveston and I have the first photos of the motorhome
under the new home.
We have an owl that hunts in front of the deck.
We took a trip to
Palacious, Texas to visit Liam's grandparents, Scott and Rebecca.
Much fishing and walking was done.
We went on to Port
Aransas and spent a few days exploring that area. We had an
interesting campsite where there is an owner who purchased a site,
improved it and then rents it. They were really nice sites to
just live in. Like you were in an apartment. Like an
assisted living for older RVers. Nice but lacking in exploration
and adventure.
We rented a golf
cart and toured the beach. Like most of the Gulf Coast the sand
was solid enough for any sort of vehicle, including forty-foot diesel
pusher motorhomes.

golf cart:
We stopped at a
great community playground.
This is the BEST SWING EVER!!!!!!
Here's Landon
helping Papa at Papa's house.
Here's Odo's
windsock ears. You know the wind is blowing at 12 knots or more
if both ears go up.
The temperature dropped from the 80s to the 50s and I learned that
Herons move from fishing to hunting. Their water-based food
becomes lethargic in the cold so they move up to mice, squirrels,
snakes and other creatures in the local fields. I had three
hunting in the field across from my house. THe first is a heron
who sleeps for hours in the middle of the field.
