We Moved

Bay City, Texas

Weather: low 55 degrees, high 77 degrees, cloudy, winds to 20 mph

We made an extremely hard move of at least four miles today. It had to have taken every bit of 15 minutes. Actually, the hardest thing about the move was breaking camp and setting up again. And even that was not hard. This is the shortest move yet for us.

We moved to Riverside Rv Park, located on the Colorado River. The park is owned by the city of Bay City, and is not anything to brag about. However, it will do us until we leave here. It is hard to believe, but every park in the area is full or close to it. One good thing about this park is that it is not close to a railroad. In the park we just left, our space was located about 75 feet from the railroad tracks. There are several crossings in the area, and the engineer has to blow his horn at every one of them. Even though we would be expecting the horn to blow, it still jolted us. It even startled us when we were in a sound sleep. Sometimes, it sounded as though the train was coming through the RV.

After moving and getting set up, it was time to go to the RVers' mall, WalMart. It had been almost two weeks since we bought groceries, so it was time to stock up. While at WalMart, we took advantage of the food court, which consists of MacDonald's and their dollar menu. Can you believe we ate lunch for $4.87? What a deal! In addition to taking advantage of the food court, we got some cash from the Bank of WalMart. Isn't WalMart a great store? If they don't have it, you don't need it. By the way, Carolyn doesn't share my enthusiam for WalMart.

After getting home and putting everything away, I changed from long pants into walking shorts, loaded my golf clubs into the truck, and went to the golf course. Terrell and I played another 18 holes, and it was good fun. I found more rust, chipped more rust, and seemed to accumulate rust where I didn't expect it. But you know what they say? A bad day on the golf course is better than a good day at work.

I'm not sure what we will do tomorrow, but it will be interesting to see how we sleep without a train coming through the RV.

More later, be safe.
