Is anyone going to San Antone...


No, I don't need you to pick up something for me - that is the title to a song by Charlie Pride and later by the Randy Rogers Band.  No bonus points, 'cause this old rock 'n roller can't tell you much about country music.  ;-)

This morning, we hit the road with the motorhome, heading out for a few days of "Christmas spirit."  Or, in the way of National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation: "Are you serious, Clark?"  For the record, I would be the Cousin Eddie character, not the Clark Griswold persona... "That there's an RV, Clark."  Or: "Merry Christmas!  Shitter's full!"  Yeah, I'm digressing... but laughing out loud.

We didn't bring the motorhome to the house - just put a few things in the CR-V and headed to our storage unit; a quick load-up and we were ready to hit the road...


It was uncharacteristically calm - as in: no wind.  We seem to be able to generate wind when we are traveling in the motorhome... usually coming from the direction we are heading.  Flat terrain in south Texas...


Navigator and co-pilot, ready for some holiday R 'n R...


The timing was such, that we were able to stop for some fine dining for lunch as we passed through the Corpus Christi area...


No, the motorhome does not fit in the drive-up.

An uneventful trip north; we are looking forward to the Christmas lights on the Riverwalk, some shopping, and the main reason for the trip: a concert by guitar great Tommy Emanuel.  And, some kick back holiday time in the motorhome.
