Rockwall, Texas
Weather Condition; High 87, Low 62,
We pulled out of Goliad
State Park around 8:45 A.M Wednesday, May 16th. We stayed an
additional day due to storms. Anyway, we pulled out with nice weather and the
drive wasn’t bad at all. We covered 372 miles getting to Purtis Creek State
Park in Eustace, Texas.
We made a couple of
stops along the way to stretch our legs and walk the dogs. We stopped outside
of Hearne for fuel and we arrived at Purtis Creek SP about 4:15 P.M. It was a
long day but we were glad to be that much closer to our next destination.
We have a nice shaded
back-in site. These sites are water and electric only. We are only going to be
here a few days so we don’t need the sewer.
We were able to visit
with Dawn’s sister and brother-in-law while there.
We pulled out of Purtis
Creek State Park on Monday, May 21st around 10:30 A.M and pulled
into Rockwall about noon. It was hot and humid.
We’ve been so busy
since we arrived in town. We’ve cleaned the roof, washed the exterior, taken
our dining table to storage, got oil changed in truck, picked up registration
for trailer, did 2 weeks of laundry, visited with friends, bought graduation
gifts, steamed cleaned carpet and cleaned up the truck, inside and out.
We’ve been busy!
By the way, today is
our 1 year anniversary. That’s right; we’ve been full-timers for one year. It
has really gone by fast. We talked about the fact we haven’t traveled very far
but we’ve seen a lot and are really enjoying ourselves.
We have not missed
living in a big house with an extra big yard. We have plenty of room in our
fifth wheel. The only time I’ve even thought about having a stick-n-brick is
during the severe stormy weather.
We have enjoyed the
traveling and have made a lot of new friends. We feel like we are just getting
started. We have so many places to go and so many things to see.
We’ve learned a lot
from other RVers.
We are looking forward
to many more miles and years of full-timing.
