WOW........are we in a quandary!! We are trying to decide on an RV Park in the Rio Grande Valley for the month of January. We have been to South Padre Island during the December Holidays several years ago, but we were not looking at rv parks at that time. NOW we are!!! And.......there are reportedly 80,000 rv sites in the Valley. There are soooo many different types of parks/campgrounds.........we are just not certain which one to make a deposit with.
Soooo, today I spent a great deal of time online and on the phone line researching the various parks, talking with people who work at different ones, and just trying to get a feel for the various available ones. And......there are already many that booked to capacity for January. Hard to believe when several of the parks have from 1200 to 1500 rv sites!!!!! Tons of rv'ers head to Texas for the winter........some of the parks have a 3 month minimum stay!! And to think......there are just as many, or more, sites in Florida and Arizona!!! AND Mexico!!!
We will be going to Arizona for Feb and part of March, but we already have that park site reserved.....not a problem.
We did have the guy who tiled our new bathroom come over so we could discuss the kitchen floor and also the countertop. Doing some serious thinking about using granite tiles on the countertop.......a less expensive way of using granite and it looks really good, at least everywhere we have seen it.......including HGTV!!
The 1st Lady attempted to get rid of some of the "STUFF" in the boxes in the garage and in the sun/patio room. BUT.....think she just re-arranged the "STUFF" and combine the boxes into different configurations.....hmmmmmm....... WHAT does one do with memorabilia such as pictures of family, high school yearbooks, thousands of slides that I have taken since 1958, etc., etc., etc.?????????
And there you have it!!!! My day in a few short sentences that more than likely bored the Hell out of you. Each day I am AMAZED and SHOCKED at the quantity of readers that click into this blogspot!!!!! The other day there were almost 400 people from around the world who checked in and spent some time reading my rambling thoughts.......GOOD GOD!!!! Perhaps I should put some advertisers on this site!!!!!!!!!!
One other thing I have done and that is to resign from my position as a member of the national Board of Directors for the Cedar Creek RV Owners Club. For almost a year I have been the Director of Region 6 of the CCRVOC which coverd Missouri, Illinois, Kansas, and Nebraska. Well, I am serving on several other boards and I am planning to bring an end to each of this positions very soon...........I do not have the time to serve and do justice to the job on these boards. Soooo, I have made a decision to relieve myself of some of these responsibilities and begin traveling down a "path" where I will not have this feeling of guilt when I don't get the tasks done that should have been done by .......me! I have spent my entire Life in service to young people getting an education, meeting musical performance schedules, various church music positions, community positions, and various local, state, regional, and national boards of directors for many organizations. ALL of these have made it necessary for me to travel all over the country to meetings, etc., etc. and while I LOVE to travel, I want to do so without having to attend meetings and having to make decisions at these meetings. It is time to enjoy the years I have left.....I HOPE....and travel and see as much of the world that I have not seen yet without clouds of responsibility pushing down on my aging brain cells. Soooooo, as always.....
LIFE IS GREAT......and I hope it is for all of you, also!!!!!!
