Home Sweet Home!

We have been home for almost 2 weeks from our Texas RV trip and I am just now getting the pictures out of my camera so I can share some of them with you. I had planned to post pictures along the way but I soon found out that wasn't going to work as very few places had WIFI, and of those that did, their signals were usually to weak to be able to upload anything. We were gone 5 days to Lake Murray in Oklahoma for the family's reunion and 28 days on our Texas trip. The trip itinerary was for 10 more days, but I cut the trip short after deciding I wanted to be home for my mom's birthday. My plan and original idea for the camera photos was to post one pic for each of the 28 days. So out of 400 pictures I took ... crazy, yes... I have picked 28 just for you. Each are dated with as close to the actual date taken as possible. I don't seem to have any in the last 6 days so I have added a few extra in the earlier days. Come along with me from Amarillo, to El Paso, to South Padre and points inbetween. Enjoy!
