7.3.11

Sunday December 19th

Left La Place around 9:00 a.m. and headed west.  Pretty much an easy drive along mostly flat and straight Interstate 10.

Central Houston and downtown San Antonio were a little unnerving.  Even for a Sunday there was plenty of traffic and exit and entrance ramps all over the place.  Upper levels and lower levels to the roadways and cars coming at you from all directions.  And we don't want to have to make any sudden U turns in the rig.  On the bike, well, it's expected.  Not so much in the motor home.

We wound up doing close to 600 miles yesterday and stopped for the night in a Wal-Mart parking lot.  in the morning we'll find an RV park.  It's very difficult to negotiate your way around some campgrounds if you come in after dark or after they close.  Most have a night registration where you find a spot and pay in the morning.  Frankly, I prefer to do it in the daylight and make sure I get a spot that will accommodate our needs.

Tomorrow we take the Alamo.  According to our Son, we're supposed to ask about the basement.  Don't know what that means, but we'll see.
