March 2 - Mission, TX

Today was moving day. We left Alamo, TX and moved all of 24 miles west to Bentsen Palms RV Park in Mission, TX. We didn't load LilBit because it was too much work for such a short distance. It is right next to the World Birding Center Headquarters and the Bentsen Rio Grande State Park. We are looking forward to hearing all the sounds of the birds as we walk around the area.

The rest of our stay at Casa de Valle RV Park was better with each day that the weather got better. It finally got good enough for us to spend some quality time in the pool and hot tub.

We were also able to spend real good times with other Excel owners. It's always great to hear of their travels around the country, where they stayed, about the local area and the people they met.

This was the fifth time we had to hitch the big truck to the trailer and it went really well. Roseann sure is good at guiding me into the hitch. She reminds me of a ground crewman guiding an airplane into the gate. She's right on the money.

Hopefully we'll be seeing some warmer weather without all of the wind real soon. I'd like to be able to put the awning down, sit out and listen to the sounds of all the birds around us.
