Its New Years Eve today so you all have safe New Years and don't forget to make you New Years resolution. We have not done much since we have been here because its been cold and wet most of the time. We did go dancing last night at Tip of Texas RV Park with some friends. Lois & I have not dance since we left here. It was fun and we did not forget everything we was taught.
Today we are going to play golf with some other friends and then go over and have Margaritas at the VIP park with Joyce and Mel. We did not plan on going anywhere on New Years Eve but just stay here and be safe.

We made it to La Feria TX today about 2 pm and got set up. One of the neighbors came over and invited us over for coffee after we got sit up. While we were visiting with the neighbors our friends from La Feria RV Park stop by to visit us. So after all of this Lois and I went over to McDonalds for supper. I think we are tried and worn out need some rest for a while.

We left Sunday morning around 8 am and head for Texas and warmer weather. There was about three or four other units pulling out Sunday. We came down 169 to 60 and then down 69 to 19 and stay the night just south of 1-30 on 19. On the way down on 69 this fifth wheel pass us like we were setting still. About a 100 yards or so the front side panel (up by the bedroom slide) came off his rig along with his clearance light. It almost hit us put it miss and a semi truck ran over it. We stop and pick it up and walk it up to the other trailer. When I give the gentlemen his panel he stated he did not expect that to happen. I wanted to tell him driving as fast as he was going to expect anything but I did not. That was our adventure for the day.

Its been a while since I wrote any thing but its just been the same old thing eat, sleep and work. I got a full week in this last week but Lois had been not feeling well. She only work Monday and Tuesday and Friday. She getting better each day. We had supper with some friends from work last night. They are work campers too and will be there till Tuesday next week. We could have stay but it was time to go south to warmer weather. I got sick yesterday but better today, so we can get laundry done and some grocery before we head down the road. If things goes as plan we should be in Texas before Christmas.

Two days off to rest and try to get over these colds we caught. Lois and I both miss a day of work this week. My cold is almost gone but Lois is still battling hers.
Looks like we might only have a week left of work if so we will head to Texas as fast and safe as we can. Don't like the cold. People are pulling out every day it seems like. There are a lot of empty spaces in the park now. Some people we know are leaving today. I can see him putting things away and getting ready to hook up to leave. His lady left on Wednesday for AL. and he will be there in a week.
Till there is more to write I will see ya.
