Hi everybody,
It was Saturday morning and I was on my way again. I said my goodbyes to everyone...they were all staying until Monday before making their way back to Florida. I was now heading towards Killeen, TX.
I arrived around 3 p.m. in Killeen. Stopped and visited with LeeAnn for a bit. We went out for some supper and got caught up on up coming events. Her husband Tommy was going to be arriving home from Iraq soon. LeeAnn's parents (Cindi & Dwight), Tommy's mom (my good friend Babs) and his younger brother Tim were all going to be here in Killeen to welcome him home....oh and me too !! LOL But that wasn't going to be for a few more days so after resting for a bit....I continued on the road. I ended up in San Antonio for the night. I decided that I was going to Galveston- I had missed seeing this area the last time I was in Texas. After a good nights sleep I was on my way to Galveston.
It was a cloudy morning. I ran into some Monday morning traffic- but not too bad until I got near Houston...an oil tanker had tipped over and cause quite the mess in traffic. I was able to get some good sunrise pictures while I was waiting!! LOL
As I made my way out to Galveston Island, and it started raining.... it wasn't to heavy so it didn't affect the driving very much. I arrive on Galveston Island around 2 p.m. I found my way to the state park there. I registered for 4 nights and found my way to my camp sight. This state park is right on the shore. (not as close camping as on Assa Island, but closer than onSt. George's Island) It is a very nice park. Just a short walk to the ocean- about 100 - 150 yards. There were a couple of other tenters here, but it was mostly RV's. I waited a bit after arriving- as the rain seemed to be letting up and I don't like to set up in the rain, if I don't have to!!!! LOL
Well the rain did let up and I was able to get everything set up...before the rains came back.
Ok now will go and get more ready to post....will be back in touch soon- Donna
