Westward

Tomorrow we will be leaving Louisiana and heading West to Albuquerque.  We contemplated extending our stay in Louisiana (again), but have decided it's time to head home and see what's up!  Cooler weather and rain forecast for this area has prompted our decision to go ahead and head back.  It's been great visiting with family and friends while here.  Our next outing is planned for March 22-26 with our RV group, Siglo de Oro, in Las Cruces.  I have lots of family in the area and hope to get to see some of them while there!

Rain? Again?

We are in Louisiana at a new campsite at Fairview Riverside State Park -- this is the third time we have changed campsites, but that's all right, it gives us more practice in backing, setting up, etc., on our new-to-us rig.  The weather is supposed to turn rainy this afternoon, so I'm glad we're all set up before it hits.  I am enjoying having the stackable washer/dryer that we have in here -- it is so handy!  Even if we can't use the washer, due to not having sewer hook-ups, we can wash at their washers and dry clothes at home!  Ah, the modern conveniences of life!  I am going to try to figure out how to post a picture to this post so you can see our new-to-us rig!

Little Steps

Trying to figure out how to produce a blog is fun and maybe a little challenging.  I follow several family and/or knitting blogs and am trying to incorporate new ideas into this blog.  We'll see how it goes!  We've decided to extend our stay in Louisiana until next Tuesday so we can visit everyone we came to see.  Who knows when we'll head back to Albuquerque!

Mardi Gras

We have been in Louisiana for ten days and the weather has been mostly cold, rainy, humid, windy -- even snow last Friday!  Mardi Gras is today and we plan to view the Covington parade if it isn't too cold (it's warmer in Albuquerque today)!  Weather turned bad enough that the full campground had a lot of no shows and other people left two days early -- not nice enough to be outside.  Where are we headed next?  Nor sure yet -- maybe Mississippi, maybe Texas, then wind our way back to Albuquerque.  Love our new rig!
