This Is Not The Texas That I Know

I am freezing my little muscular tushie off here.  We even had snow here today!  Can you believe that?  I am beginning to think we took a wrong turn and that we are not even in Texas. 

This morning, we didn't have water.  Yep, our outdoor faucet froze.  Apparently, we were supposed to keep the water running inside. We have our hose wrapped which is what the signs around the park said we needed to do. Our hose is also heated, so we thought we would be fine.  We won't make that mistake again.

There is a guy that works here that drives a golf cart and whenever he sees us he stops and gives us a treat.   He didn't stop yesterday because it was too cold.  Scout couldn't believe that he passed us by. She was not happy.

Changes

Our new location

Change #1

We have arrived at our new destination.  Any guesses where it is?  We were also here last year.  The same park, but a different site.  There were predictions of ice here yesterday, but we just had a cold rain. The weather here is colder than Houston this week. 

Change #2

We have a new laptop!  Mama got really tired of the battery not holding a charge longer than 20 minutes and then the power cord didn't want to charge it. She literally had to wiggle the cord to get it into a position to charge and then she had to hold it in that place to make it charge.  It is hard to type with one hand.  We haven't been posting much because of our computer problems.

We are learning how to use this computer because it has Windows 8.  Mama is catching on to it, but it will take a while to get all of our favorite links setup.  We didn't know if it would be hard to get our pictures to load from our camera, but it worked easily.  Mama was a little concerned about that.  This laptop has a touch screen and Mama really likes it and I think it is cool.

Last Thursday, the folks visited our "address".  We use a mail forwarding service through Escapees which is a RV club. The folks drove there to have a look around and they were able to pick up their mail. The club is really nice because they have a care center for members if they become ill.  They are able to receive medical treatment and while still living in their RV and they also have meals delivered.  They also have a rec room that Mama checked out. Women were sewing, quilting and doing other crafts.  Mama said she was the youngest one there.  BOL!  The campground was pretty nice and the rates are really low for members. 

It sounds like we have a busy day ahead of us with doing laundry and setting up this computer.

Nope, you are not leaving us today.  We are having a sit in, but it is more like a lay in.  BOL!

Not Much To Say

Me keeping an eye on things.

 There is not much going on here.  Sunday, we had a beautiful day.  We sat outside and watched Mama knit a sock.  BOL!  Today, we are waiting for the ice storm to arrive.  We had one on Friday, but this one was billed to be bigger. Schools are closed and some businesses. It is not living up to the predictions though and we may escape it without much happening.  It looks like we will get above freezing this afternoon and that was not predicted. We thought we would be without water all day, but the temperatures have stayed warm enough that they haven't turned it off.  It will most likely be turned off tonight though.  It will be the fifth time.  Today, we are just snuggled up in our blankets and having a "snow day" as Mama calls it.

Oh, there is something big happening tomorrow night. The fun police will be back in town.  Yep, that is right, Dad is coming home and it looks like we will be together for the rest of the year!  We are leaving here later this week and heading to our next destination.  We were supposed to head to California after Christmas but those plans were canceled.  We were quite disappointed. Mama kept us busy though and we did fine.

Our new flag.
