Jane says, "IS IT EVER GOING TO STOP RAINING....

Arrived yesterday, Silsbee, Texas. Stayed only one night in Louisiana due to the RV campground was pretty much a shallow lake. They had 5 inches of rain in just a couple of days. The area is called a bayou, maybe because it looks like a forest under water...interstate 10 went for miles and miles and miles on piers over the bayou (swamp) It rained and rained as we traveled. This am as I awoke in Texas (about 25 miles north of Beaufort) with overcast skies I was feeling a bit cooped up, but wonderful day the sun has come out and it is in the 50's.
We visited a local church and enjoyed a bit of Jesus refreshment.....
We will stay here a few days, hike, do some bird watching and visit the area.

Desoto Park, Childersburg, Alabama

Beautiful, cool, clear morning. We will be leaving here shortly for Mississippi. Dale is out treasure hunting with his new metal detector. I think we will soon be rich. He already found over $3.00 yesterday.
Desoto Caverns Park is a nice campground with a sort of "roadside" flavor. It has a large cavern found somewhere in the 1400's by military, Spanish I think. Prior to that it was used by Indians for a very long time. Now, you can pay $17.95 to see it. A little rich for our entertainments. We go for free or almost free. But, nevertheless, a nice place with pleasant surroundings.
Daisy still does not like the riding part. She actually bit me as I tried to get her out from under Dale's seat to put her into the kennel. Wow, that has never happened before and for her sake it had better not happen again.
We will be heading to Mississippi today and will not have WIFI for several days. So we will see you in Louisiana....

Day two

We made it to Tenn yesterday with a good travel day.

This is today,Sunday...rain...rain...

Travels with Jane and Dale

Oh, I'm a bit nervous today, getting ready to leave tomorrow morning for new adventures. This should be about a 3 month trip with two months in Texas. It's cold outside and I hope we will be heading into warmer climes. We'll spend just one night in Tenn and head further south on Sunday.

The trip takes us to Spicewood, TX to work at a Christian Campground for three weeks and then 3 weeks in Comfort, TX less than 100 miles from the first project.

Daisy just had a bath, the RV is packed (with a new space heater) and we are ready to go. We will miss Daniel, Josh, Alena, Luke and Christain, oh and their parents also. We'll miss our dear friends and give much thanks for the ones helping take care of our home while we are away.

Don't forget to pray for us, we'll be praying for you.
