We made it to Mission, TX, Feb 12-13, 2011

Yes, the temperature are finally warmer, but from what I heard they were cold here (ice storm cold), last week too.

We fueled up at a Flying J, had to wiggle into their snug RV pumps. Even with a 3 cents per gallon discount for using their Rewards Card, the $3.46 was still .28 cents higher than we paid in late January, don’t like this trend.

We always manage to find road construction on our route, sometimes our planned route has a barricade across saying follow a detour, that is when it can get interesting.

Another mission of our going to Mission Tx was to visit some long time (five years) blog friends (Facebook too), Dianne and Roger N. Their blog is Travel with Whippets. Last year they purchased an RV lot at Retama Village, this year they are finishing out the interior of the included with the lot and concrete pad, coach house.

Monday, we went shopping at a local Mexican grocery store and we found it! It being LaAnita Chile Habanero sauce for our daughter Jenny and her family. They love it!!

Are the Flying J's normally such a tight squeeze???

Yes, Sue and Doug, I would have to say that all Flying J's RV pumps are snug and usually not easy to pull into for Class A motorhomes. In this case, we were the only RV at the pump which does make it easier, don't have to worry about our towed being in their way, etc.
