Livingston, TX 1-31-07

Today we traveled twice as far as we did a week ago! We ended up traveling 50 something miles today, 53 I think. I don’t feel like going out to the truck to look it up in my notebook! We are already in “doing nothing” mode. It took us an hour to get here from Conroe. It was cloudy, but didn’t rain on us for break-down or set-up. We are in Livingston, Texas at the Escapees Rainbow Park. We have a lovely site in the trees and will be here for 4 weeks. We will get in some exploration after we have finished vegging. This park is very large and we are looking forward to getting in some good walking, as long as it isn’t to wet. It is pretty cold today, mid-forties and is raining off and on this afternoon.

As this is Escapees Headquarters we plan on taking tours of the headquarters operations and of Care Center which is a long and short term care facility for Escapees members. We have absolutely no plans, other than doing a lot of nothing, which is extremely rare for us! We are close enough that we can visit Darcy a couple times before we start heading back west.

We are encouraging Aunt Gretchen to go home while Darcy is “rehabbing”. She has been out here for 6 weeks, the crisis is over and she needs to pick up her life again too. Darcy would actually do better without Mom coddling her and waiting on her, Darcy needs to get back to doing everything for herself and Mom needs a rest. I told Aunt Gretchen she should detour to a spa for a week before going home! She could really use it! I had hoped to at least give her a massage, but there just never seemed to be time, we were always doing or going! I’ll try and keep you posted on how Darcy is doing, but for now there isn’t going to be much day to day stuff to report.

For about the next 3 weeks if you need to mail something to us, here is where you send it:
Valerie or Larry Moniz, General Delivery, Livingston, TX 77351. These pictures are of our home for the next four weeks. I would sure like to start seeing that sun that Texas always brags about!
