Mansfield, TX enroute to Lake Jackson, TX




Well...we left  cool Dumas this morning and Jerry said it was the best day ever for driving----NO WIND, AND NO HORRIBLE ROADS!!!! He even drove with one hand for about 29 seconds!! Our challenge for the day was in  Childress, TX at Wal-Mart!  Jerry pulled in the gas station, filled up and depended on me to direct him out of a very tight exit!  Needless to say, I directed him straight tooooooooooo far and he could not make the turn out!!!!!!  So, out of the Blue comes this really, really nice man---who lies on the grass and directs Jerry and makes him turn reallllllly hard and then tells him to cut his wheels and back up!!!  Jerry informs the man we can not back up with the tow trailer (with my car)---the man says, "oh, yes you can!"  So we back up!!!@$#! and then pull up and back up again!!#$@#% and as the man is lying on the grass directing Jerry ..... we make it out of the Wal-Mart gas station, whew!!!  Then off to 
Ft. Worth we go with our "B---- in the Box GPS" who directed us through Rush Hour Traffic directly to our "Texas RV" spot tonight!!  Yeah, we actually unloaded my little car and drove to "On The Border" for dinner and huge Margaritas!  We stopped to get Jerry a paper, I walked the dogs, Jerry is reading and watching the NBA playoffs as I am writing to you!!! Tonight is our last night on the road.  We are traveling back to Lake Jackson in the morning for a 5 hour trip home---the dogs are more anxious than we are!  It has been an awesome 17 days on our "Maiden Voyage!"  As Jerry said, we have learned alot, stressed alot, loved alot and had God watching over us the entire trip, we are blessed and it has been fun!!! Thanks for following our new adventures in our RV!!!! love you all---Coni & Jerry
