La Grange, TX 2-28-07

We got up and got going. It was cloudy again. We pulled out at 9:55. We took US190 from Livingston west across Lake Livingston to Huntsville. There we picked up S30 which ran into S90 and through Navasota where we picked up S105 to Brenham where we headed west on US290 to 237 to La Grange, Texas. We traveled 166 miles and got in here at 1:35. Warm all day, into the high 70’s but never saw the sun.

These pictures are of the lovely Texas countryside, a couple of stately homes coming into Navasota and the old 1860’s part of Navasota.

The last pictures are of our site here and of the Colorado River that the RV park is next to. The picture of the six turtles is blurry, but I had to do mega-telephoto and I didn’t have a tripod. We saw a large snapping turtle sitting on a log too, but I decided to save you from another turtle picture.

Talked to Andrea today. She was on her way home from the hospital. Ian had his first playground emergency. He did really well while the medical team “dermabonded” the split in his forehead back together, he was making them laugh with his reactions to everything. The nurse put gauze over his eye so the saline solution wouldn’t get in his eyes and he says, “I’m a pirate!” He was being silly and stayed still and wasn’t scared at all.

On the road again tomorrow.
