Draft Kings At Casino Queen RV was the ideal spot to camp near the St Louis Arch! We had full hookups for two nights here. A code is needed to enter or exit in a vehicle, as well as to access the showers/restrooms, so we felt pretty safe. The showers were great!! We started out… Continue reading Gateway to the West – St Louis Arch

Branson, MO – “SIX”
The main strip of Branson looks a lot like that of Pigeon Forge with the Wax Museum, the Titanic, Ripley’s Believe It or Not, etc. We weren’t interested in any of that. We pulled into Branson City Lakeside RV Park on Friday, June 6 for two nights. Our site was right next to a decent… Continue reading Branson, MO – “SIX”
Return Visit – Dean Weldon in Texas
Dean was such a fine hostess when we came by to visit last year, that we asked if we could stop by again this year. 🙂 This year we will be able to park Sadie out front Dean’s home! Dean is getting her backyard ready for some flower beds. We arrived on June 2 with… Continue reading Return Visit – Dean Weldon in Texas
A Great Visit With Ken & Susie Collins
May 31 Today we made it to Ken & Susie Collins’ place in Aubrey, Texas. What a lovely estate! (Minus the goats next door – LOL) Susie has a real knack for using antique pieces in decorating a warm and welcoming home. Loved her watermelon kitchen–subtle, but as we spotted them we looked for more.… Continue reading A Great Visit With Ken & Susie Collins
Ft Worth – Texas Longhorns Cattle Drive
May 29 -30, 2025 We arrived the afternoon of May 29 at the Fort Worth Elks. Evidently, the Ft Worth Elks now lease the large parking area where they used to allow RVs to park overnight! But they neglected to change availability on the website where it stated there were two spots with power, and… Continue reading Ft Worth – Texas Longhorns Cattle Drive
Relaxing at New Braunsfel, TX
Sunday, May 25, we arrived in New Braunsfel, Texas for four nights at Canopy RV Resort. It’s a beautiful place full of pecan trees. Really nice place with two very nice pickleball courts! Unfortunately, there were no players other than Barry and me. 🙁 We played skinny singles every day. Barry is better at… Continue reading Relaxing at New Braunsfel, TX
San Antonio: San Fernando Cathedral’s “The Saga”
Barry and I enjoyed the San Antonia River Walk the last time we were in San Antonio, but we were unaware of the unique light show that is projected onto the beautiful facade of the San Fernando Cathedral in Main Plaza. Recently our friends Brian and Michelle discovered it and shared it. The program is… Continue reading San Antonio: San Fernando Cathedral’s “The Saga”
Sea Turtles, Inc & South Padre Island
We came to Isla Blanca RV Park on South Padre Island from Donna, Texas where we were supposed to spend two weeks at Victoria Palms Encore RV. We left early due to the horrid humidity of 94% combined with temperatures in the mid to upper 90’s. We hoped getting to the beach would make the… Continue reading Sea Turtles, Inc & South Padre Island
Tombstone & Wyatt Earp
Barry arranged for two nights at our second Harvest Host “Third & Survey”, to facilitate our time checking out Tombstone. Leann is an awesome host! Extremely personable and helpful. This Harvest Host site has a lot more room than we expected from what we saw online. Since we could dry-camp, we got a wonderfully private,… Continue reading Tombstone & Wyatt Earp
Adventures in Sadie BEGIN!
Today is an exciting day for Barry and me as we head out for 5-6 months in Sadie, our new 2025 Grech RV Strata-Ion Tour. We downsized from Vinny, our 37 ft Newmar Ventana diesel pusher with a full wall slide, two passenger side slides, and LOTS of inside storage plus additional outside “basement storage”… Continue reading Adventures in Sadie BEGIN!
