Kerrville, TX-November 30, 2011

We had a tiring day today but arrived safely in Kerrville this afternoon. We happened upon an accident with a pick-up truck pulling a travel trailer crossing to our side of the road and flipping over taking up both lanes of I-10. That meant we had to drive down the dirt median to go around it. That was not a safe feeling, but we were far better off than the couple standing on the side of the road looking at their trailer on its side. Then we had to drive through some heavy duty road construction here in town. But we pulled in here and were greeted with open arms. We are so glad we were not later because we got the last 50 amp space they had. A man who appeared to be the manager told us all that there is to do here and then had us sit in a Gator while he drove us around the entire place. This park is beside the Guadalupe River but they have a bridge across it so that tent campers stay on the other side on a little island in the middle of the river. We walked over there tonight and it is very serene. The water is so clear and clean and it sounds wonderful. They tell us we will wake up to deer and turkeys eating outside our coach. We would enjoy seeing that. Things are still green here because they have not had lots of freezing temps yet. It is such a welcome change for us. There's a fun Christmas thing happening in Fredericksburg on Friday, so we may stick around for that. It is a German celebration and Jerry being full blooded German will really enjoy that. I will like it as well.

  1. Welcome! Just stumbled onto your blog and thought I might suggest some restaurants while you're here. In Kerrville, try Grape Juice, Rails, and Francisco's. And by all means head over to Ingram for Sunday brunch or lunch any other day at The Queen Bee, perhaps the world's most wonderful tea room. Have a grand time here in the Hill Country. We think it's the best place in the world to retire.
