Today in Port O'Connor

This is my RV, see all the tropical foliage around it? Rough life, huh?

This is where you hang your fish and take a picture to prove to the world how big your fish was. Then you take a few steps to the right and clean your fish. Very efficient.

Another drippy cold day, 52 degrees at noon. But then I watch the noon news and see film of snow flying in the far north and I feel warmer.

This picture is from last week. I just wanted to show it off. I took several like this. The clouds make a more interesting picture than a clear sky. Of course it doesn't show that it is 20 degrees below normal and the wind is blowing the sand across the ground like it does snow up north. It's still beautiful. There is something about the ocean.

Here in Port O'Connor the thing is fishing. There is a fish dinner tomorrow night. They even have an outdoor sign with hooks at the top that you can hang you fish on and it shows how big they are. I'll have to get a picture of that.

Today's weather was nasty so we stayed in and had a restful day.

This blog is to replace one I was making on another popular site known by and for teen agers. When my friends started getting porn email from me I decided it was time to move on.

My main goal is to post what is happening in my life so friends and family can keep up with me as I move around the south in my 22 foot class C RV. I travel with 2 dogs, a standard poodle named Silly, and a 30 lb mutt named Red.

I've just moved to this campground today. What a friendly place. There is a big welcome sign out front with my name on it and the names of my dogs. Or maybe it's just so very boring here that our arrival is momentous. I'm in Port O'Connor, Texas. This campground has WIFI and cable TV. How smart of me to pick one with cable TV for SuperBowl week-end.

There is a free ferry to get across Aransas Pass. This morning at about 10:30 they advised me not to get on it just yet as I might drag as there was a terribly low tide. While I waited I watched porpoises in the bay and took the dogs for a walk. An hour and a half later I crossed safely.
