Day 1 of the road back to Ohio

We had a great week with our friends Fred and Vickie.  Took in Sandfest, celebrated our 30th anniversary with them at Moby Dick's at Port Aransas, couple of doctor appointments in Corpus Christi, but mostly just hung out and enjoyed each other's company.  Very enjoyable, we'll miss them (again).

Today was our first day back on the road.  Only issue getting ready was the lock that we use as a "pin" for the hitch had to be greased and knocked open.

Got away about 9:45a from Copano Bay RV Resort, said our goodbyes to Terry and Kathy, Fred and Vickie and hit the highway.  Fueled and had lunch at  Buc-ee's in Wharton.  Cleanest restrooms anywhere.

So nice to be able to only open one slide for lunch with our BigHorn.  Roomy enough and don't look like we're camping in the parking lot.  Makes lunch very relaxing.

Getting through Houston was pretty normal.  Traffic backups, but plenty of lanes to get in to avoid being a problem.

Stopped for the night at Lake Livingston State Park.  They're really busy, spots are REALLY tight.  Balked at 3 spots before finding a spot we could back into with our length and their deep ditches.  Getting to realize that with our equipment, we're really not State Park people any more.

Connie did great on the ride, pretty standard stuff for us.  Day 1 down, Day 2 is ahead.
