Last night we went to Cracker Barrel for dinner. We’ve never been to Cracker Barrel for dinner before although we were there once for breakfast many years ago and that was just fine. Last night we are in the Wal-Mart SuperCenter parking lot in Corydon, Indiana, and there are a lot of restaurants in the area, we’ve driven all…

Graceland
We decided a week or two ago that we would make our way home through Memphis. We even thought we would drop in to Graceland and see what all the hype was about. Then, as we got closer, we started to think it throough a bit more. We have the Elvis channel on our Sirius…
Lake Village, Arkansas
We keep looking for that perfect North American town, you know, the ones you see in the movies. They have friendly people, history, scenery, great downtown areas with neat little boutiques, comfortable residential areas and lot’s of industry. I guess we are looking for that “All American” or “All Canadian” town. One with lot’s of…
Lake Chicot State Park
. They tell us that Lake Chicot, Arkansas’ largest natural lake, was formed when the Mississippi river changed it’s direction a bit and created a new channel. I snapped this photo of our GPS as we were checking in and I think it shows it all pretty well. On the left the blue arc is the…
Go North Young Man
So yesterday we leave Galveston Island bright and early and to avoid Houston and Houston traffic we take the ferry back to the mainland. We work our way up to I-10, roll through eastern Texas, into Louisiana and head up US 165. I agree that when you’re in a hurry, and you really have some…
Wow! What Was That?
I woke up yesterday morning and felt like I had been run over by a freight train. You know, banger of a headache, upset tummy, the whole works. So for all of the day I slept, slept some more and then slept again. I’m thinking I’m still a little weak this morning but feeling way…
Beware Of The Bugs
Question: On a 70 degree spring day in south Texas why would that lady be all dressed up looking like she is ready for a winter day back where ever they still have winter days? Answer: Mosquitos. Remember the storm with the rain and tornado’s we talked about when we were in San Antonio earlier…
Imagine This
Right next to the kitchen slide in our coach is a niche area that Marilyn, and I’m sure other like-minded ladies of distinction, display things. You know, cute little artsy stuff, maybe some nice wine glasses, pictures of the grandkids, stuff like that. You never see any guy stuff there. There’s never a nice set…
Rockport Texas
We’ve had a great couple of days in Rockport. We saw the big tree and walked the dogs on Stinky Beach (it wasn’t Stinky yesterday) in goose Island State Park. The girls toured a bunch of the art galleries downtown. We’ve sat in the sun, enjoyed the near 80 degree days, pigged out on Texas…
