San Antonio, TX


Some of them are not afraid to eat out of your hand.


People feed them all the time.

At the park we have a lot of deer. Many of them come around when they hear any rattleing of bags or cans which sounds like food.

Hugh building around the River Walk and the Alamo.


The River Walk.

The Alamo at San Antonio.

We are in San Antonio. We are having our Thousand Trails of TX/FMCA Rally at the TT Park at Lake Medina. We went in to town to take a few pictures and do the River Walk.

More Softball Pictures

Mimi and Madison.

Game over!!!

Just finished playing a game. Will have another one in a while later. They are always tournaments so they play anywhere from 3 to 6 games during the weekend.


Micah and Ava. The older kids sure do love the younger kids and they are always right there with them.

Melissa and Madison.

Ric, Debra and Ava.

Us with all our girls.

After I took Peyton back home, we found out that Debra was over at our coach with Tommy, so we called each other and made it a point to meet them to go eat at Luby's in Conroe.






Madison had a softball game at The Woodlands. Michael and Micah had a game at a different place at Tyler. I went and picked up Peyton so he could spend a few days with us. He sure did have a lot of fun with Madison and other kids at the park.

Grandkids Ballgames

After a good game, Peyton is getting his things together so he can go spend a few days with Mimi and his cousins.


It is so much fun getting to see you grandkids play sports. Unfortunately I don't get to do as much as I'd like cause we're always traveling.

Getting his flags fixed up.

Also went to my grandson's soccer game at Friendswood. It's not very easy trying to make some of the game when they are not very close to home.


After the game got rained out we decided to go to my daughter's at Cypress to see my other granddaughter.
Mimi with grandkids. The kids are sure getting tall or am I shrinking?????



My daughter and grandkids.

My granddaughter was having a game at Baseball USA/The Yard, in Houston. It had been raining so it was decided that the fields would be too wet to play so the game were cancelled.

Some of the girls in my granddaughters team.

After the 6 State FMCA Rally we stayed stayed at Texoma for a few days and at Tawakoni for a few days. At Tawakoni, our friends from Indiana, Wynn and Beverly were going to catch up with us. They are headed to South Texas to work at an RV Park. We stayed at Tawakoni for about 2 days after they got there, then we traveled together to Conroe. After we got to Conroe, of course our grandkids are close, so we get to go to ball games. There's always a game of some sort going on with our grandkids. My granddaughter and grandson play ball year round.

New Mexico to Whitney Texas

Part of Lake Whitney.




The Lake Whiteney Bridge.


It looks like we're getting real close to our destination. It's probably a few more miles to our park.





A courthouse.

The 3 Amigos or the 3 Bandidos.











We are almost at Cisco, TX. I took some of this pictures because this is my son's nickname.



Some kind of a small airport along the way but I don't remember where it was. It was probably at Abilene.



Well, I guess we're at Abilene TX. A lot of you know that mirrow, screens, windows and other things are always getting in the way. Also, we're trying to take a picture and have a pretty good shot at it and when we click, we get a tree or an eighteen wheeler or other things. That really gets me.





As you can see Tommy's got his cleaning gear out. He put it there hoping that somebody will use it.




Taking a rest by a little lake or pond or something.








Lots of CRUDE in this part of TX.





This blur of a field was sunflowers. They were pretty yellow fields but sometimes when I'm taking the pictures while rolling, some things are just blurs while other things in the same picture are alright.







TEXAS Crude!!!!



I like old barns.





At the time we didn't even know what banks were. We never had a need for a bank cause we never had any money. Didn't even know what money was.



When we were younger and in school we used to always be migrant workers. Muleshoe was one of the small town that we went to work in the cotton fields and did other kinds of work. That was a long, long time ago. I really don't remember the town but I sure do remember where we lived cause we were surrounded by nothing but fields.









Many grain elevators on the Texas side also.


We are at the Texas State Line. It's been 3 months since we left Texas.


Everywhere we stop, Tommy has to clean the windshield and the coach.


We are at Clovis NM so we'll be looking for Walmart.




A whirlwind at a place where they had been working with the ground.



We stopped on the roadside just to check things out and everything was fine so we kept on going.


A Historical Marker.


Many grain elevators along the way also.




Some ranches along the way.


We are probably 25 miles from Clovis NM where we will spend the night at a Walmart.




It's been about 10 months since I posted any pictures on my blog. Since we're traveling again, I decided to post the pictures where I left off in August 2009 so I can post my pictures of our travels to the east. Of course my pictures will be a few months behind but maybe I'll catch up pretty quick if our internet reception and my computer can handle it. I've had a little trouble with my computer and at times its just so slow so I don't mess with it. I have took out a few gigabytes of pictures and stored them in flashdrives so it gave me some free space so I can keep on trucking. At the time of the pictures we are traveling from Tijeras, NM to Lake Whitney, Texas where we'll be having our September TT of Texas/FMCA Rally. We will be visiting with our rally group and having fun and eating more.
