Spending Time with a Family Friend

April 17, 2010.

Again we awoke to a large puddle outside the rig as we have for the last several days. I got out early and pushed the water down the driveway to drain out into the street. We said goodbye to our neighbors, Clancy and Linda also full time Rvers that started their journey the same time as us in October of 2009. They have a beautiful Carriage Carri-Lite with a full wall slide.

Later in the morning, the rain clouds moved off and the sun came out! Slowly things began to dry. A friend of the family, Barb, lives in Fredericksburg and she came to our park to visit. After catching up and walking the dogs around the park, we decided to go to a local Mexican restaurant in Kerrville, Mamacitas.

The restaurant was beautiful with this gorgeous candelabra at the entrance.

The dining rooms were also beautiful. The restaurant made it’s own fresh tortillas and had a ice cream shop attached. The food was excellent and we all did a good job of cleaning our plates!

By the time we got back home, the temperature had really dipped and the breeze and picked up. We called it a day and said our good-byes. We hope to run into Barb again sometime down the road!

Yesterday, April 16, we were holed up in the rig between rain showers. Joyce took these photos through the window of an enterprising squirrel going after the sunflower seeds in her bird feeder.

I got a call that the Goodyear Tires I had ordered for our fifth wheel were waiting for us at A&A Tire Service.  I spoke with the assistant manager, Mike and made arrangements to be at the shop Monday morning. We will stop there after we leave Guadalupe River RV Resort and then continue west on I-10.  That’s the plan!
