March 26 - 27 (Palo Duro Canyon SP, Amarillo, TX)

Since we are planning on seeing the Grand Canyon in a week or so, this was a good place to stop while we wait for the timetable for Max's funeral. The Palo Duro Canyon was very under-utilized this week. Apparently it was quite a different story last week in the height of Spring Break which had the park at full capacity.

March 23 - March 25 (Texoma TTN - Gainesville, TX)

We left the Colorado River TTN campground and drove all the way to Texoma TTN near Gainesville. Texoma is one of the nicest parks in the Thousand Trails system. http://1000trails.com/getaways/texas/laketexoma.asp We received the sad news that Ray's brother Max passed away in Manteca, CA on Monday. Date of service is still pending so we are leaving here early to head for Albuquerque and fly from there, probably this weekend.

March 15- March 22 (Colorado River TTN (Columbus, TX)

Finally left the windy Rio Grande Valley and came back to Colorado River Thousand Trails near Columbus, TX. This was Spring Break for Erin's kids so we spent the week between Katy, TX and here at the trailer with Erin and the kids. Highlight was a trip to San Antonio to Sea World. It was 11 hours and 13 minutes of extreme fun on a beautiful day with two very well-behaved and appreciative kids. We'll be leaving on Easter Sunday to travel north to Lake Tawakani near Gainesville, TX.

TROPIC WINDS - Check out the video. No question as to the reason this RV park is named Tropic Winds. It really is a nice park, but we have rarely had a non-windy day in the month we've been here.
