Week 1 of our 2009 Adventure



We're off! We left San Antonio on the 15th and stopped in Houston for two nights. We stayed at the same RV park as last year. They have a pool and an activity room, so we had Steven over Wednesday and Thursday. He and Clayton had a ball. They loved the swimming pool and playing cars. It's been almost a year since they've been together and we've vowed that we're going to visit Houston more this year and get the boys together.

Steven looks good and is talking much better. He's grown almost as tall as Clayton since last year.

On Friday morning, while we were packing up to leave, we had a downpour. We've had such a drought this year in San Antonio, we had almost forgotten what rain looks like. But we found out when it rained 2 inches in less than 30 minutes. A little soaked, we travelled that Friday to Fontainebleau Sate Park just north of New Orleans on the north shore of Lake Pontchartrain. What a beautiful park this is, too. As a point of reference Louisiana has lots and lots of very nice state parks. It seems that they are accustomed to having them damaged by hurricanes, only to clean them up once again for our use. We only stayed there one night then headed for Montgomery, Alabama for Saturday night.
