That's right. We went to Padre Island National Seashore again. As we finish up our time here in the area for the winter, we're looking at our list of places to see.

(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
