Location:
Magnolia RV Park
Goodrich, TX
While we really enjoyed the Escapees Park in the Piney Woods of East Texas, we were nestled in some trees that completely blocked the satellite dish. We also found out that we needed to stay in the area a week or two longer than we first planned, so we moved 7 miles down the road to Magnolia RV Park. We’ll admit that we missed TV more than we thought we would.

The Escapees have a great park nestled in the East Texas Piney Woods, and we were able to make contacts with our fellow RV Club members.

Location:
Fredericksburg KOA
Fredericksburg, TX
Fredericksburg was a waypoint on the pilgrimage to Livingston, TX, home of the Escapees RV Club. People have asked how we get packages, and the Escapees offers a service that we subscribe to.
We spent most of one morning touring the Clark Hotel. I took a tour of the old kitchen while ElizaBeth visited with the curator.

Location:
Van Horn RV Park
Van Horn, TX
More than one person asked us why the first stop was somewhere close to Las Cruces like Van Horn, but if you think about it, the first waypoint of a journey is generally near to the beginning just by definition. We plan to limit our driving to no more than three to five hours a day anyway, and even though setting up the RV takes only half an hour, we like to stay a day or two and see the area one that’s done. Also, ElizaBeth spent part of her youth in Van Horn, and she wanted to see how things have changed. We decided to stay for two weeks, get the RV organized, and chill out. So far, so good.
