Sitting at Fun N Sun - Our winter home!


Last Saturday we rested at Hollywood Casino RV park.  The day was beautiful and warm, and lucky for us, Sam's Town Casino was holding a Chili Cookoff. For a mere $2.00 we got to sample from the contestants and pick our favorite. What a great lunch.  

Later that afternoon we went back to Hollywood for their first annual hot air balloon festival.  Neat to see the balloons light up in the dark.




Sunday morning we left Tunica and headed for Kinder, Louisianna.  We stopped at the Coushatta Casino RV park - a good choice since our last hour of driving was thru a major rainstorm. At the Rv park all sites are concrete pads, so setting up is a breeze.

Monday morning we left Kinder and arrived in San Benito around 7:45 pm!  Our trip of over 2,300 miles was done!  We are home for the winter.  Now the activities begin - get out out calendar !

Hollywood Casino RV Park

Saturday morning finds us resting at the Hollywood Casino RV park in Tunica, Mississippi (Just south of Memphis TN).  We arrived late yesterday afternoon in time to unhitch and set up the trailer in the fading daylight.  Then it was off to the casino for a crab leg dinner. It was great to sleep in our own bed last night.  We will stay here until tomorrow (Sunday) before we head out on the next leg of our trip.

Was fun to finally switch into shorts and sandals yesterday!!!!

We're Back!!!

Where did the summer go??  We had great plans to keep you all posted with our adventures - 2 Titanium rallies, a cruise of the Greek islands, a golf weekend in Canton, cataract surgery, etc etc - but not one picture made it to this blog.  Oh well next year.  LOL

Perhaps we should call this a blog of our Texas adventures!!

In any case, we hitched up yesterday and drove to Sarnia, Ontario where we spent the night at a Super 8.  Early this morning (8am) we crossed the border and drove to Horse Cave, Kentucky.  This is just south of the time change line, so we actually gained an hour.  Nonetheless, it was still 8:30 our time and 12 hours on the road!

A quick dip in the hot tub helped chase away the aches!

Stay tuned for our next update.
