Another beautiful sunny day....windy at times...but not too bad.

We have noticed in the last few stops....the stereotypical "Overweight American", and it doesn't stop at the adults....it's the children and also dogs!!!  But this ol' guy has this figured out! He looks like he was about 80 or so....so not very able-bodied...but he passed by us several times....running his dog...

So we are heading to San Antonio and Brother Joe is heading to Corpus Christie....then we will meet again in 2 or 3 nights.

Wasn't long before we left the desert and scrub behind (as interesting and beautiful as it was) we were happy to see some green....more small town charm....and finally wildlife....and they were ALIVE!!! Finally!!!

Oh, I was so happy to see them alive!!! Check out those SPOTS!!!


And just in case you ever considered picking up a hitchhiker in these parts of Texas...Think again!!


San Antonio...Here We Come!!!  We had hoped to visit back in 2013 when we were down in this neck of the woods....but things just didn't work out....So we are so happy that the weather is good and it looks like we can explore this amazing city!

But before that...we must manage getting into the City.  We headed into town mid-day....so that helped...and it helped that the RV Park is very central to the sights we want to see here in San Antonio....and I am lucky George is such a calm and awesome driver...so it was a pretty easy trip into the city.....I still closed my eyes a few times!!




And in case you can't afford to `buy` your tires....you can RENT them! Yes....Rent Them!!!

Found our RV park....it is Gorgeous!!! We even saw a guy blowing the leaves off the roadway!!! Hard to believe that we are 3 miles from Downtown....on the bikepath to the RiverWalk....



Photobomber!!!
 But one of the Nicest Dog Parks we have ever seen!!

Today was a relax day...tomorrow we will finally get on our bikes and explore this amazing City!!

It's been windy for quite some time....like weeks...this morning it's pretty calm...but they are calling for more wind in the afternoon..... Decided to ride our bikes into St. George and check it out...really small casual little beach city... More white sandy beaches....this time with lots of shells...spent a good hour shell hunting... We saw lots of crab holes in the ground...apparently they are called "ghost crabs" and they only come out at night and they are almost transparent.. I was so excited when I spotted this shell.....but somebody was inside... and this baby crab on the outside!!! They have these really cute "tiny narrow rental homes".... these are the first skinny homes we have seen!! Saw dolphins in the distance for the first time today....super excited....George has to "make me move one" ....because I could stay all day and watch them... Biked out on the fishing bridge....this one goes out qui...

Today is the day....we must leave New York....it`s been great... it`s been expensive....and it`s time to go... Gracie may have wanted to visit this place...but no Dog Spa for her... Today is also the day we will part paths with Brother Joe...we will head West....because we must....he will have another direction...we will miss him....has been a great time travelling with him. It took us almost an hour to wind our way out of Jersey City...it was raining...and I swear Roxanne had us going in circles....there was detour after detour...and some ridiculously narrow streets.....but we made it......we had no idea where we were...the skies were grey and dismal and we just seemed to be going around and around..... And then this crazy horrible sign appeared...WTF....WEST!!! What is that!!!! It wasn`t long before we left the busy streets for rolling hill of trees...it is just so green and so hilly.... I love this one...it`s the first we have ever seen...... ...

It's a pretty fitting day to leave the beach...it's raining....it's still warm...but it's still raining.... Taking a ferry today instead of dealing with the traffic...won't take any time off our trip...but will take the miles off our trip...cost wise...not too sure...but if it can eliminate a few hours on the road in the city...it's worth it. This bird decided to build a nest in the busiest place ever!!! Right at the Ferry Terminal... And all along the way....Dophins.....Yay!! I will never tire of seeing them playing in the water! So before long we are on the New Jersey Turnpike.... which just means .....toll....after toll.....after toll.... and you have no idea which lane you are supposed to be in... Nightmare! Marty!!!.... You will love this....... You know all those American dimes and nickels I was saving.... Finally had a chance to use them.... Oh the look on his face when I gave him $6.00 in dimes and nickels!!! W...
