So we pulled into the Texas Lakeside RV Resort a day late due to high winds the day before. I’m not going to drive the broad-side of a barn down the highway with up to 40 mph cross winds. I mean I’m crazy, but not stupid. The resort looked extremely Read more
Well, South Padre Islands were warmer than North Padre Islands, but still not hot. It must be the time of year coupled with the polar vortex hitting the northern United States. Either way, not as warm as we thought nor wanted. But, when in Rome…. We stayed at the South Read more

Almost every building downtown has put luminaries on their parapets making a very festive holiday season. Check out this pictures: Yes, that is snow! A bit cold here, Read more
