Haven't posted anything for three days because the internet in Grapevine, Texas was spotty at best.
We arrived in Grapevine on Wednesday afternoon...it was a great drive as the wind was mostly out of the north (nice to get a bit of a push) or had died down completely. We stayed at the Vineyards Campgrounds...VERY nice and run by the City of Grapevine. We stayed there three years ago when niece Jayne got married and it was nice being back. We really want to return one day and stay a week or so. There's lots to do and see and Vineyards is a great Campground. Sure puts paid to the argument that government can't do things right.
We stayed in the area two days so we could visit with niece Jayne and her husband Sui; our old friend from Burlington, Joye Deardorf; and Chris and Sharon Shea and their beautiful daughters Alex and Megan. Sharon is the daughter of our good friends Richard and LoisAnne (who is now deceased) Snow. The break in travel was good as we got the chance to organize ourselves since we weren't able to before leaving.
The weather has been great...balmy really! I'm sure we will have our challenging weather days, but for now we're enjoying the spring like weather.
Our OKC stay at the Days Inn was inertesting and we'll tell you about it one day! Oh, the characters we run into are just a hoot!
The drive today was uneventful, though had to deal with wind again...but we are now at Marina Bay RV Resort, very nice...our neighbors are from Toronto...hope they don't mind our French-i-ness!
Tomorrow: time with Shanie and friends and a visit to Galveston!
