Two Days at the State Park



We took the long journey over to the State Park. About a 5 minute trip. Took longer to get ready than it did to drive the distance.
We love Tawakoni State Park and recommend it to all if your in this area of the country. The sites are far enough apart that you don't feel like you are visiting your next door neighbors all the time.
We got the site we wanted...with the clear view of the southern sky. This was our chance to try out our new Direct TV on the roof dish. I flipped the AB switch to connect the roof dish and it began to search for the satellites. It took about 2 minutes and bingo...it was on line and working.
After we got all set up we sat our chairs outside and enjoyed the warm weather. It was in the 70's today and tomorrow promised 80's. WOW you could not asked for better weather in this part of the country.



The lake is down real low at this time but the rains have helped.

 This is the beach at the swimming area and you can see the water is nowhere to be found


This little fellow stayed right with us the whole time.

We stayed two nights here and really enjoyed the time we had. It was almost like being in a far away place and really not being more than minutes away from our home base. We will do this again when the barn starts to close in on us.

Beautiful sunset from our site



We returned to the barn and sat up once more there. Thursday was the first day of the RV show in Dallas and we planned on going. We love to see the new RV's and see what they offer.
We got to Market Hall about 1:00 pm and spent most of the day just wandering around in everything from bumper pulls to Motorhomes. Went to a seminar about Texas State Parks. Man! I had know idea how many beautiful parks there are in Texas. One could spend many months here just visiting these parks.
We returned home that evening feeling good about our choice in coaches. I did not find one there that had any more than mine and non we priced as good as ours...even at the show prices!
That brings us up to date for now. We are just waiting for the next adventure...

We can't wait to visit the parks in your area and see you guys.

It feels good not to see a MH that you'd like better.

We like RV shows too, even if we aren't in the market. Just fun to look. It's nice there are so many choices...something for everyone.
