November 14 New Orleans

WOW another night in Florida after leaving Tampa then we traveled thru Alabama, Mississippi and landing in New Orleans. Last day was about 357 mile a long day of driving by our normal standards. Although Bill drove the majority of the way, I drove the last 40 miles getting us to the park in New Orleans. When playing on my phone, acting as a DJ on Pandora and txting the trip was quite short LOL

Got word Oncor has agreed to turn the power on and the city of Grapevine is throwing all resources it sounds like on getting the Vineyards in top notch shape to open for Thanksgiving.

So we will still leave NOLA headed to Dallas Monday, stopping over in Shreveport then cruising on into Grapevine Tuesday. May stay at the Elks club for a night so we are close by and can make the big move over to the Vineyards.

We're looking forward to seeing everyone and imagine it will be like riding a bike we'll fall back into a routine and seeing familiar faces.

Winter in Texas oh yeah! We hope for a mild one!!

November 9 Tampa Bound

Well its time to say good bye to FTL, headed to Texas. We enjoyed the boat show here yesterday although very warm in the sun upper 80's felt like 95.

We'll spend a day or two in Tampa with friends we hosted with at the Vineyards then we will begin our journey to Tx in hope they are ready to accommodate us after the big flood of 2015.

Last we heard power should be back on by the 12th, we hope or we maybe hanging out somewhere else until they get everything up and running.

They are hoping to be open for Thanksgiving, which should be totally a booked weekend.

After we get to Grapevine Tx I will post to sum up our trip and what we encounter along the way.
