We left PA on October 31 to head to Bastrop, Texas. Our first stop was in Red Bay, AL to get our antenna repaired.
Since Phil Campbell is close to Red Bay we were able to go over and visit with Janice. This is the house we worked on building in the spring. It sure was nice seeing it finished and Janice all moved in.
She loves her kitchen.
The bathroom was a lot bigger then I remembered it.
She now is sleeping in her bed.
After 5 days at Red Bay we had the antenna repaired and were on the road again.
When we got to Texas and off the interstate the speed limit changed. Everything is bigger in Texas!!
We had heard that gas was cheaper in Texas. We paid $3.63 for diesel at the Flying J in Arkansas.
As we came into Bastrop this Exxon station was having a grand opening and was packed with cars, but we couldn't resist pulling in and filling up since the price for diesel was $2.99!!
A few hours later it was back to $3.49. What a blessing to have gotten it for $2.99, what a nice welcome to town.
We turned onto Alum Creek Rd and drove a few miles down this road.
We turned onto Park Road 1C.
right after we turned onto 1C we crossed the Alum Creek. During the rains the week before, that flooded Austin, also flooded this road and the creek was at the 4 foot level.
Now we came to the road into camp.
The camp where we will be parked for the next four weeks.
We have 50 amps, water and sewer. All set up and ready to get to work .
Godiva seems to love it here, especially exploring this wood pile.
Sunday we went to church in Bastrop. It seems to be a nice historic old western town with lots of places to eat and shop. We look forward to learning about it and exploring on our days off.
