It's what Joan said when she first got up this morning. No, she probably wasn't referring to my bed-head hair. She was looking a dew on the skylight in our motorhome. We haven't seen that in a couple months. Or had nasal passages that didn't feel dried out. Oh, sure, in a couple days (when we're unloading the motorhome) I will probably be cursing the humidty. But, this morning, it feels good.
When she opened the shade by our dinette...
No, it is not foggy this morning - that is the haze of humidity on the outside of our windows. In a few moments, it looked like this...
We are not in a hurry this morning - only planning to do 150 miles or so today, so we have no concern about getting out early. Leisurely showers and a hot breakfast cooked in. Another 100 miles or so of "west Texas" and we'll be into "south-central Texas." :-)

An easy driving day today: the wind was light, an overcast sky (so we weren't staring into the sun), and pleasant temperature...
Less than an hour into the drive, the sky became more broken than overcast...
Not too much longer, and we were into Hill Country and seeing wildflowers along the road (Texas is well known for the wildflowers in spring - a beautification project started by Ladybird Johnson when LBJ was Governor...
And, before long, into the traffic of San Antonio. No, there are no photos of the traffic. Even picking our timing to go through the city late morning, the traffic was still plenty thick. No slow-downs, and we were through the city before noon. Our planned stop for the day is an RV park just south of SA; we stopped to fuel up before going into the park. We will get all our tanks flushed and emptied - tomorrow morning, it will be: unhook utilities, connect the CR-V and cargo trailer to the motorhome, and head for home. About 6 hours to go to get home. We could have made it a long day today and made it home... we are good with being a bit leisurely, having the tanks ready for storage, and getting home with time to start the unloading process in the daylight.

Lunch was great - Italian, with some left-overs for lunch tomorrow. Rufus and I took a 15 minute nap. This is my idea of RVing.
When I got up, we started the tank flushing and dumping; mostly, this just takes a bit of time. Joan asked if I had any gallon water containers in my storage compartment... yes, an opened jug of distilled water. It gave me a reason to check and top off the batteries. The Group 31 batteries in the coach are in good condition, and Joan got the water jug she wanted.
Rufus was on his tower as I was coming and going from inside the coach - I couldn't resist taking a photo of this handsome boy...
It was warm in the sun, but very comfortable in the shade... and I tried to stay in the shade while getting things done outside; 87º out there this afternoon. I took a moment to get a photo of our (disconnected) rig in this RV site...
