Day 1 is in the Rear View Mirror

Woke up around 0500 and got the rest of the stuff loaded in Ms Casita and the Xterra...already had it hitched the day before...Wheels in the Well at 0815. Got on l-10 until I came to Junction, Tx and started driving on Rt 83 heading North....Towns where few and far between...it was overcast which is how I like to travel....about 1:30 pm I rolled into Ballinger Tx, and found the City Park and Lake...

Got myself a site right by the "lake", electric and water...it has a covered picnic bench...the park itself is pretty good size, especially for a town this small...includes a swimming pool...I was tempted ...I'm the only one that's here for camping...it appears to be well lite...and quiet...so it well probably be snoozeville somewhat early.

I relaxed, organized a bit and caught up with Rob...don't know if the stars are going to line up for a meeting...we'll know better tomorrow or Tuesday......

I did unhitch and won't hitch up until I get ready to pull out...tomorrows destination Dumas Texas or somewhere within 50 miles of there...Until then, Happy Trails...Horst sends
