Where Are We and Why Are We Here?

Friday morning we headed down to Rockport, which is about 80 miles away, but with my scenic route and poor navigational skills, in reality it was more like 110 miles.  Guess who wasn't happy.

We did come across this cool wind farm across the field.

Our trip to Rockport was to go to an open house at an RV dealer.  The funniest part of this was that at least 200 people were lined up for at least an hour, to get their free hot dog, potato salad, and a bottle of water.  I'm sure none of these people bought a thing in the store, much less a new RV.  We did not get in this line as I would never eat a hot dog, even if it were free.  We did walk through some of the trailers and also bought a light bulb and a fan for the refrigerator. 

After the open house, we headed south to get to the beach in Port Aransas.  It was such a beautiful day out, even the sail boats were out and about.

We walked down the really long walkway into the bay.  The walkway looked like it was made up of huge boulders of granite. 

We found loads of really cool jelly fish that we had never seen before on the Alabama coast.  After further research, I've learned that they are cannonball jellyfish. 

These were all wedged inbetween the boulder walkway.  Mark tried poking one with a stick - they are very hard. 

Today was men's breakfast day for Mark, I did laundry and vacuuming. After waxing a little more of the trailer, and grocery shopping we spent some time in the pool.  After a fabulous dinner at La Hacienda, I'm ready to crash for the evening.
