New Year -- New Beginnings

We left our home base in Teague today. We're starting the new year at a new park (to us that is). And it's another first... our first working trip in our new RV/Motor Coach (new to us that is -- again).

We had planned to be on the road by 10:00 a.m., but there were several things working against us. First, the weather. Yuck! It rained all night and as of this writing (at 2:00 pm. CST) it's still pouring. Creeks and rivers are close to spilling over their banks.

There is one good thing in our favor... it's 50 degrees outside and not FREEZING (thank goodness). Last Sunday Dallas/Ft. Worth and points east got 1+ inches of snow plus some icing on overpasses and bridges. Rain is much easier to navigate in a behemoth 42' 10" diesel pusher like ours. Truth is, we would not have attempted icy travel conditions.

Our destination today is Texarkana. Can you believe they received six inches of snow just last Sunday? What a difference a week makes!

I'm looking forward to seeing what the Arklatex area has to offer. I'll keep you posted. Glub... Glub!

Till next time...

Happy Trails,
