Happy St. Patrick's Day to all. We are on the road again and will try to 'blog' as often as possible. We left Donna/Victoria Palms at about 9:00 A.M. and drove to Junction, TX; about 390 miles. It was a beautiful day to drive. Clear blue sky's most of the day and about 72 degrees. We didn't take the bypass around San Antonio, as recommended, we drove through exciting downtown. Everything went well except for the 1/2 hour delay to merge three lanes of traffic down to one. It's hard to believe that traffic would be backed up for miles just to merge down to one lane.

We are staying at a KOA campground. The owner's name is Dusty Sullivan. Coincidence #1

There is another Winnebago just like ours parked in the next row. Coincidence #2. It has Washington state plates and it's a special plate for Navy Aviators. I asked if he was from Oak Harbor and did he fly A-6's. That's the aircraft that my brother flew and my brother lives near Oak Harbor . He said he did live in Oak Harbor and he flew A-3's, the predecessor to the A-6. His name is Ray Sullivan and he knows of my brother. Coincidence #3.

Tomorrow we going to try to get to La Cruces, NM. Later!
