Hey Wayne,
I'm just a couple miles from Rockport right now, just across the bay at Goose Island state park. It's been pretty nice down here, but kind of windy some days. Seen a couple of 70 degree days and a couple of 60 degree days. Looks like there are a lot of open sites here right now, and the cost is $20 for a premium (next to the water), and $16 for the other sites, all with water and electric. In addition, there's a $3 daily park use fee, but if you buy an annual pass it will cover that.

I'm at site #7, right next to the water. Look me up when you get here!

Have a good one,

Bill

Sorry, but I'll be up in Phoenix (or nearabouts) in a week or so. I have friends in Phoenix, a business meeting to attend mid-January, and a niece moving to Yuma at the same time. I might just pull on over to Quartzsite and hide from everybody!

Have a safe trip Mr. and Mrs Yogi

Bill

I forgot you kept a blog! How 'bout posting the pic of you and Marti in the Mug thread!

Good luck with the fix on your truck . Probably better it happen closer to home than in the middle of no where.

Well we got the Pig back today!! We had a short 150 mile test run with the Blue Bird. The Pig ran great, so now now we are ready to roll and the Weather is rolling in. We are getting 3 to 5 inches of the White stuff.

I just got a call from a friend that is Held-Up in a Motel on the way to Texas. Well I guess here we still broken Hearted want to leave but....... You finish it up.

O'Ya the dealer won't find any thing wrong so they changed the Fuel filters at my request. This is the fourth time in 38,000 miles. I asked them to cut the filter up to check for Metal particles, nothing I guess that's good.
Please send us some nice driving weather !!!
Wayne & Marti
