Nov 11, 20011 Henderson, TX

We have traveled to the East Texas area of Henderson/Longview.

We are staying with our friends Kenny and Joe. Our friends Norman and Josh from Dallas also came in for the weekend of fun.

Kenny and Joe were able to provide us with full hook ups right on their property. We all were able to hang out together and have fun together. Kenny and Joe have a new puppy, Dixie who is very cute and fun to play with. She is kept us all busy and laughing for the weekend.

We attended the Henderson Syrup Festival and learned how syrup was made from sugar cane. The festival also had an antique car show and had many antique tractors as well. We enjoyed the festival and were able to sample some local foods, yummy.

On Sunday we rode with Kenny and Joe to Marshall and Big Pine. They took us on a short cut out through the woods and back country area...we drove down a dirt road that had areas where the sides of the road were taller than the truck in which we rode. We all joked about what it would be like to be here alone at night. The road did end and we were back on the main road and we had lunch at Big Pine Lodge. We all ate catfish out on the patio overlooking the river and it was great.

The weekend has been great and photos will be loaded later.

We are one our way to Louisiana, and we will be stopping in Natchitoches, Lafayette, Baton Rouge on our way to New Orleans.
