San Marcos









Next we went to San Marcos and stayed for a week. It was a great place to stay because it is half way between San Antonio and Austin. I loved the RV Park (PecanPark RV) because it had a swimming pool that was wonderfully warm and not crowded. We swam everyday. It was great. In San Antonio we went to the Alamo and then walked along the River Walk and stopped for lunch. Such a pretty place. In Austin we went to a cute Mexican Restaurant and then went to the Texas Historical Museum. The museum is really well done. We learned a lot. While we were there, it rained about six inches in one night. The next day we woke up and found the our RV Park had been flooded. Three cars had to be towed away and a lot of RV's were damaged. A tree limb broke off and landed in the middle of a 5th wheel. Warner and I were oblivious to the whole thing. Our part of the park was dry.

Tucson







January 12, 2012, we left looking for the sun and warmth. In reality, we probably would have found more sun in St. George. We have seen a lot of wonderful things and really enjoyed our trip, but we have waited through a lot a rain storms. Our first stop was Tucson to see John and Marianne. We met Jordan and Larry, had great dinners, and went to see the missile site and the biosphere. It was a great start to our trip.
