Livingston, Texas

We are spending a few days at the Escapees Campground, which is Leon's legal home, and his first time to "come home."

About 6 miles away lives our friend Marion and we enjoyed visiting at her new place. She has ten lovely acres and the place is a work in progress.


Don has driven up from Houston as Marion, Don, and I have birthdays within 8 days of each other so this is our birthday visit.

Leon, Don, and I drove through Houston yesterday and a few miles south the truck decided to stop. We spent most of the afternoon visiting with Don in Hardy Auto Repair's parking lot in Santa Fe but it was a warm sunny day and we had a great visit. Who knew the sending unit was cracked? The rental car brought us back north up 146. A birthday to remember for sure! Thank goodness we didn't break down in Houston!

I am sorry to hear you are having so many mechanical difficulties while on your trip. That tends to put a damper on things. All you can do is take it in stride and make the best of it. It sounds like you two are doing a good job at that. Have fun! Be safe!
