Driving day. We left San Benito and Fun N Sun for a little backtracking and ultimately on to Rockport, TX to the Bay View RV Park. Rockport is probably 40 minutes NE from Corpus Christi on the north end of the intracoastal waterway that extends from here back down to Brownsville. When we first arrived they assigned us a spot that was short and sloped left-to-right such that nobody would have sufficient blocks to lift both left tires about 4 or 5 inches. We drove back to the office and asked if we could just pick an empty space and they said okee-dokee. We ended up going to another loop and pulled into a beautiful site in a canopy of oaks. There were great doggles around which I promptly bribed with Pupper-Ronies. They dogs all thought I was a stand-up guy after that.
Peg got out the anti-gravity chaises while I hooked up the utilities. We spent a good part of the afternoon taking it easy in the the dappled shade of the oak canopy checking out the dogs, squirrels and birds.
Late in the afternoon Peg asked me what was the dull roar that you could hear when everything else was silent but I didn’t have the answer. It sounded like a distant plane engine but it never got closer or further away. Strange.
