RVM2 might have changed his address, but his face is still on wanted posters all over Texas. I reckon he still belongs here.

As to the Kanukistan contingent, there wouldn't be must left if they'd let off the hot air.
I'm going to hafta sit back and ponder thisahere post. I think it may be disguising an insults or three.

Also how'd the Ropelightus'r'us get to be a triology?

What's funny is that Bella is parked in her shed with the doors shut. Only the shed windows tell us it's daylight, and the scenery could be improved. 😏 A lot!

Brekkers first and then we'll hook up the Jeep and GO! Watch out Road; here we come!

Snow showers are forecast for the coming weekend, so it's pretty good timing. But the rain in Spain ...er... Rockport ... may dampen things a bit. Things but not spirits. Where mutants gather, weather is always Fine. Even in April in Arkansas. Right, Tim? Di?

Can't wait!
We dusted off the KOA in Naples for you last week. All should be good for your arrival, lol.

There you go Steve, what are you going to do with the WIND & FREEZE? Pack it or store it? Just razing you about it all!!! You are making decisions that I could never make, I guess that's why we are only part-times and not full-timers

DCHeck welcome to our side of the sick twisted rainbow that we ride. Your fine application is being processed by the temps at RVM Central but I can confirm that you are now and forever will be RVM #98 and being as your a Texan I greet you from the DFW area where we hang our hAt when not on the road. Mel and Kate aka. MPH live up there in the dust bowl too! We are certainly glad to have you among us.

I know you did, and we are ever so grateful. 😆 It might get dusty again afore we git there, though, since it'll be December. We have things to do, people to see...or some such. We're taking the shortcut through Rockport.

Didja have a good trip? Are ya home yet, or loafin' around somewhere here in the balmy south?

Thanks again for a job well done!

Cheers!
Sue

none implied and none intended. Just my silly way of writing what I'm a thinking!! The site was only available to people in this here part of the world. Too bad because you could almost see our house from there.

Yep, yep, yep! It was such a good JOURNEY that I had to pry his fingers off the wheel! 😳

We stopped in/near Sikeston at the same place Don & Sandee 👋 stayed a few nights ago. I told 'em to watch their rear view mirrors for us! 🏃 🏃

We'll have to go get some a them throwed rolls at Lamberts. (Whether I actually eat mine is a different question.) Alex, our host, gave us the Lamberts' phone number. Apparently they come pick you up...good strategy, that.

Hey Larry with a Zee... no worries here - as for the decisions - I kept all of the unopened ones...

Sohapi - Di - Sue and other foodie type chefin' mutants. We Texans all have oil... I bottled these myself from my own olive oil wells...

Black Canyon Heritage Park

Black Canyon Heritage Park is about 30 acres with nice trails touring the hills and gulches above Black Canyon, and below the Bradshaw Mountains. No admission charge! Heck, nobody else was there.
We hiked 3 miles there today. The weather has cooled and will be nice for at least 10 days!
The chaining fruit cholla, a rock with a "bird" in it, Nola taking a rest, and a spider web 35 feet up a saguaro.
Don't miss it, eh?
