Pecos, TX

Saturday, Nov 12

Wind, win, everywhere wind.  Todays travels were long and boring.  We got on the road early.  Bill had to spend a lot of time fighting the rig in the wind.  We stopped twice for fuel, once in the morning and once just before pulling into the park.  Speaking of the park, we stopped at an Escapee's park called TraPark in Pecos, TX.  Not a place I would want to spend a lot of time but overnight is fine.  The price was reasonable.  The only thing was that the hookups were side by side so you wound up really close to your neighbors. 


We have decided that New Jersey lives on Dunkin Doughnuts, there was one on just about every corner, and Texas lives on Dairy Queen.  We have seen a bunch of those.  So much that we decided we had to have ice cream after we got settled into the campground.  I also tried to find a grocery store but couldn't so I settled for the Walmart food section, not a Super Walmart, just a regular one.  I had to have milk and bread since we were out of both.  Everything else will wait until we get to El Paso and the base there. 

I am trying to use up everything in the fridge and freezer before we hit Hemet so we had shepard's pie that I had in the freezer.  It didn't require any real cooking on my part.  We went to bed early as we only had one TV channel and it had football on.  That was it for today.
