What a day

Today was an almost perfect day. There was no wind and no rain and the driving was so easy. We did find the roads that really need the Obama Stimulus in Arkansas. Some spots were like driving over railroad tracks for miles at a time. Once we hit Texas the roads got much better.

We were expecting to stay a a new campground advertised on the TACO web site. We came close but as we approached the road the campground was on we turned around and left. It was no more than eight feet wide and tree lined on both sides. It is not a situation I wanted to get into. We did see another campground a few miles back on I-30 and headed for it. The people that own it are from PA and bought it less than a year ago. It is a small place and right off the highway. They said it was in terrible shape when they bought it and have been working for the last few months getting it in shape.

My guess is it will take them at least another six months to turn it into a really good overnight stop. We will check back on our way home next spring and see how things have improved.

Tomorrow we will be heading for New Caney, TX. which is just north of San Antonio. Just two more days of travel and we will reach our destination. Tomorrow is a 5 to 6 hour drive and then Tuesday will be a short 4 hour day of driving. It is getting late and I am very tired so we will continue tomorrow.
