Getting better


Fewer problems with RV. Ran good, got 13.4 mpg pulling Venture on trailer, with headwinds. Can't seem to get away from rain though. 0% chance turned into a down pour with hail. Everything wet, muddy and dirty. No leaks in RV this time.
Roads and surrounding areas in and out of Big Bend are extremely remote, rugged, rocky, dry, hot and beautiful. Linda took many great pics. Left early but was in mid 90's by 11-12 am in Presidio. Didn't stay long and returned to higher elevation where it was cooler.
Marfa lights was a bust. House and car lights 10-20 miles off is all we saw. You Tube videos were better than what we saw.
Visited Davis Mtns. State Park. Really nice. We will be going back there. Road between Alpine and Ft. Davis very pretty too.
Went to Marathon for breakfast, Gage Hotel only serves guests. Ate at a coffee shop, breakfast $23!
Home Friday afternoon hoping guys will show up to ride Sat. Group seems to be falling apart.
More camping trips maybe in late June, early July.
Linda and I laughed at ourselves. We could park 4-6 RV's in our bedroom alone. Our kingsize bed would take up the entire RV interior and more!
