Rockport, Texas - October 2012

We arrived in Rockport Texas on October 1st and will be staying at Drifters RV Resort for the winter. The park is very nice and we love the exercise room, biking area, swimming pool and they plan on many activities beginning in November.  The weather is great, hot humid but not cold!!
We love this area because of the Ocean, the fishing, but most of all the beautiful scenery around us.
We look forward to spending time here this winter and will have a better feel of everything after a few months.
John and I have scheduled all of our Annual Dr. appointments for our Wellness checkups so we will feel good after all of this is done.  Shots,,,shots,,,,bloodwork....and more.  Love It Now Though!!

10/14/2012-We are meeting new people which we love.  Met some folks from Canyon City, Colorado in El Paso in September and found out they also are staying here in Aransas Pass, for the winter.  Jerry and Anita at their RV in Ranson Rd RV Park. 

Then when we were in San Marcos we met some folks that stayed at the same place last month and they are now here in the same park with us.  Went to Goliad to Market Days with Steve and Vickie.  Also went swimming with Steve and Vicki, our neighbors.   It has been a pleasure meeting new folks.

San Marcos, Texas - September 2012

Arrived in San Marcos at the Pecan RV Park which is very nice.  We are right next to the San Marcos river, which is a big attraction for "tubers".  Weekdays are quiet, but weekends are filled with those that love the river and lots of college students. It is very relaxing here, but John and I are trying to get some exercise in and are now swimming daily.  We are having fun!  We will explore the area in time, but for now gonna enjoy some tubing, fishing, and swimming.

Casper, Wyoming - Met up with our nephew Martin which was so awesome to see him.  Hadn't seen him for about 12 years.  Went to dinner and breakfast and then had to our next destination, Greeley.

Yellowstone National Park - June/July

June was a busy month for us and we traveled many miles.  Here we are at the tail end of June in Yellowstone with Tristan and Gracie.  Gracie saved her money and flew to Spokane, Washington where we picked her up.  Tristan we picked up in Coeur'd Alene, Idaho.  Thought since we were working our way down to Colorado we would take the kids to Yellowstone.  What an awesome place.  Stayed at Grizzly RV Park, which is very nice.  Just wished they had a swimming pool as it was nice and hot here.  We enjoyed Yellowstone 4 days and the kids loved it. We saw many animals which were, Grizzly Bear, Black Bear, Elk, Longhorn Sheep, Coyote, Squirrels, Chipmunks, Eagles, Moose and many many Buffalo.  How awesome was Old Faithful and the beauty of the park. Another great adventure and the scenery was outstanding.
Went to the movies to see "Brave" and what a great movie.  Fun fun fun with the kids.
