Chasing the blue dot to find adventure…
I know it's been a while since I last posted, but we've been working and not doing a lot of traveling. We've got some life updates: We adopted two kittens in mid-January 2023. Their names are Loki (a black and orange torbie) and Luna (an all black tabby). I'll do a separate post about them! … Continue reading Texas: Moving on from the Rio Grande Valley (RGV)
You might have seen me mention that we're in Brownsville for a while. We left Elgin, TX (near Bastrop, TX) in mid-August to come to the Brownsville area. We had quite the trip to Brownsville. Visiting RockportYes, we could have driven through/around San Antonio and arrived in Brownsville in one long day of driving, but … Continue reading Texas: Staying in Brownsville for the winter
We knew it was coming, but it still came as a shock. Cleo crossed over to the rainbow bridge on Wednesday, 2/16/2022 - joining both Murphy and Willow. It's excruciating to lose a family member, whether it is animal or human. Cleo was definitely a part of our family. We picked up Cleo from the … Continue reading Texas: Another RV family member passes

We headed to a location I had scouted earlier this week, the north end of the Copano Causeway. There's an old fishing pier that makes a great viewpoint for sunset. Photos … Continue reading Texas: Sunset in Rockport
In my current job, I am working part-time hours. So when my manager said she was taking Thursday and Friday off and I should too, I immediately agreed. (Yes, that means I didn't get paid, but I wouldn't have much work to do with everyone gone, either.) We decided to do a quick trip to … Continue reading Texas: Unexpected trip to Port Aransas
Our stay in Rockport was supposed to be 2 weeks, so we decided to take it easy on tourist destinations. Goose Island State Park Our first stop was Goose Island State Park, a short 3.5 mile drive away from the RV park. Goose Island offers fishing, camping, and birding opportunities all year long. We just … Continue reading Texas: Our first weekend in Rockport
As I mentioned in my previous post, it was a mistake to do the trip in 2 days. It should be done in 3 days or more. A lot of full-time RVers do the same, travel either 4 hours or 200 miles per day. Anything more is tiring. Amarillo to San Angelo We left on … Continue reading Texas: Driving down to Rockport
This is the first of many posts from our time in Rockport. We had an interesting time, that's for sure. Amarillo to Rockport In retrospect, attempting to get down to Rockport in 2 days travel time was a big mistake. We wanted to avoid taking an extra day off, so it is our fault. Now … Continue reading Texas: Our vacation in Rockport
