Jerry found a place where cactus is blooming and she wants some pictures taken and also wants me to share them with everyone. Here they are, enjoy.






This is not a cactus but it's pretty

Texas Hill Country Page Three


We've been to a lot of places in the west and have seen many sunrises and sunsets, but I don't believe we've seen any more beautiful than those in the Texas Hill Country.

Here are some examples of the beautiful sunsets in the Texas Hill Country, I hope you enjoy them.

Texas Hill Country Page Two



We have a real nice site, it's a large back-in with a large patio area. Behind us is a large open field that we can use to take Smokey for long walks, so far he seems to like it.


We have a large number of humming birds at out site and we had to increase the number of feeders to keep up. We have to fill them at least twice a week. It's a lot of fun to sit and watch them feed and see how territorial they are. I hope you like the pictures.

Texas Hill Country

Buckhorn Lake RV Resort

After spending a couple of days in Las Cruces NM and driving half way across Texas we arrived at Buckhorn Lake RV Park .http://www.buckhornlake.com/ . We'll be here during the summer and maybe well into the fall. Our jobs will be cleaning the two rest rooms, laundry rooms, exercises room and the large "Barn" which is use for large rallies and special dinner parties.

Some sites along side Goat Creek

We'll be working for our site, laundry, propane and a discount at park store. We'll be working twenty hours each per week and we are to start at about 8:00 am and work for four hours each day. That is not too bad and we have plenty time to do some sight seeing or better yet enjoy the pool and hot tub.

Buckhorn Lake RV Resort is by far the best RV park in the entire hill country. The sites are long level concrete pads with a large patio and of course full hook ups. Also there is a "hot phone" at each site that allows calls to other sites and local calls at no charge. It can also serve as an answering service so if you get a call and are not at home you can retrieve it later by calling the office.

Everyone here is very friendly and helpful and that make being here nice.

We're a little tired from our trip since we had to fight a Texas head wind for over five hundred miles. We're going to rest and take a dip in the pool. More later...stay tuned.
