Finally to Flower Mound
With the Birds
 
We got unhooked from Memphis on Sunday the 9th and hit the Interstate toward Texas. This was another 290 mile day and quite comfortable with a bit of a shower on and off but the temps in the lower 80s.
 
We landed at the Sunrise RV Park just before you get to Texarkana proper and it was a new place for us. Been through Texarkana many, many times but the timing for this evening was just right.
 
This is another nice en route park and the hosts are really super.
 


The park is a fairly new remake and laid out with wide drives and nicely compacted gravel, even with the recent rains.


Here's the Flying Scotsman as we packed up the next morning and got it ready to roll. Easy hook ups and parking. No trees or other stuff but for the big rig folks that want an easy stop on the way without mud and tight spaces this is it.


That was Monday the 10th and we rolled uneventfully toward home in Flower Mound just to the northwest of Dallas. We booked 4 nights at the Twin Coves RV park and our patio view was below with two of our old friends there to greet us after another 210 miles. At first they were content to fish ...


... then recognizing us and that we were back in Texas for the first time in over 5 months, they began a synchronized welcome dance.


Then they got a bit less synchronized or amorous eh.


And then tiring of all that they gave us a final wave and were off to the other side of Lake Grapevine to continue their greeting and mating dance in private.


Gorgeous animals and what a show that just we could see upon our arrival. Much more from our place here in Flower Mound now that we are back ... and the adventure doesn't stop!
