Last Leg to Our Winter Destination

Up early and ready to hit the road from Sawyer, OK to San Antonio, TX 425 miles today, lets hope we have a smooth trip. Weather is perfect no rain in site. Well that is leaving Sawyer, OK when we get to San Antonio we could possibly run into some rain.

 I started out driving today I did not think I would drive that far but to my surprise I drove 200 miles of the trip. I love driving the open road in front of me its just a feeling that you can't describe. I am NOT fond of construction zones just yet, especially the zones with concrete walls on both sides they scare me. We stopped for gas and we changed seats and thank goodness because the rest of the trip was construction after construction and lots and lots of traffic. He has a long 225 miles.

We are moving along pretty well I am so surprised at all the businesses along 35 in TX. It was none stop the whole trip I loved that we did not drive through any major cities. We drove around Dallas but we did not plan very well because we hit Austin TX right at rush hour and oh my what a nightmare this is going to be.

 We sat still in this traffic for about 30 mins then we limped all the way through Austin at 10 miles an hour. It turned the last 85 miles into 3 hours and by this time we were so over driving for the day the dogs were anxious and Cosmo loves to bark at people in the cars sitting next to us. We entertained the thought of stopping but we are so close why stop we are just going to push on. Made it through the traffic and right after Austin all the businesses along the side of the road disappeared and the roads went black this was what we thought the whole trip was going to be like nothing around us. 
I guess I did not realize how populated eastern and central TX was. At this point we encountered the rain that I was hoping we would miss at least it is a light rain. When we finally make it to our spot we take a big sigh and pull in park where we think we need to park get the dog gates out and get them out of the truck. Level the 5er unhook get the slide out. Todd goes to plug in and the breaker box is locked UGH.... We put in a call to Elaine and Darryl who own the Christmas Tree lot company and they come right over luckily our lot is 2 blocks from the warehouse were they were. Once the breaker box was unlocked and power was on I was relieved. Last thing Todd lined up the dish and BAM we are all set for the night.

 The trip we awesome and we are parked now until after Christmas. Any of you in the San Antonio area I would love for you to come buy your Christmas Tree from me. I will get the exact address of our lot.
