Warmer Weather - Tucson, Arizona

After leaving Bastrop on Tuesday, we arrived in Tucson today. The weather is nice...sunny and 74 degrees. I may be able to break out the shorts? We got set up, then I made a run over to the local hardware store. I needed some PVC to extend our sewer connection.

This evening, we listened to the BCS Championship Game on the Internet. We could not receive the TV station that was broadcasting the game. It was a disappointing game. Texas' quarterback, Colt McCoy, was injured at the beginning of the game and did not return. The backup, freshman quarterback had minimal playing time. Texas did rally in the second-half and come within 3-points of Alabama, but it was not to be...Texas lost to Alabama, 37-21.

Happy New Year 2010 - Bastrop, Texas

Happy New Year to our family and friends! This past year was a good year for us. We spent eight months of the year traveling this beautiful country and saw some magnificent sites and met some nice people.

We will be leaving Bastrop shortly, and spending the rest of the winter in Tucson. We plan to be back in Bastrop sometime in May (or early June) for the birth of our twin grandsons. Then onto Virginia in early July for a family reunion. After that, who knows? That is the beauty of being a fulltime RVer. You can travel when and where you want, stay as long as you want, and when you are ready to move on, you can be gone in two hours.

Home for the Holidays - Bastrop, Texas

After saying our good-byes to our friends, John & Sandy, we left Alpine and headed for Bastrop. Our initial plans were to stop in Johnson City for the night, but since we were making good time, we decided to drive straight through, and arrived in Bastrop at 5:00pm. We got the rig set up and drove over to Tonya & Eric's for dinner and visiting.

Cabin Fever - Alpine, Texas

The weather in Alpine has been cold, windy and rainy for the last four days. This morning we woke up to ice and snow. We are suffering from Cabin Fever! We did get some Christmas shopping done...online. At least the weather forecast has it warming up tomorrow.
