We found it!! we found it!! We came looking for warmth, and here it is!
Rolled out of San Antonio around 9:30 this morning, it was about 12C. But as we headed for Pharr, near Mission/Brownsville, the thermometer started climbing and by 2pm we were again peeling clothes off as the temp hit 31C. Woo-hoo!!
Pulled into the 'Tip O Texas RV Resort' about 4 pm to a lush park of palm trees and other southern vegetation. Great place, lots of full-time residents, great facilities (huge rec hall, 2 pools and 2 hot tubs - one set indoor & another outside, bingo room, card rooms, billiard room - with 6 tables, library and a sparkling laundry room - with 30 to 40 washers and that number again of dryers, about a dozen shuffleboard lanes, etc.). The park is very reminiscent of Riverside in Florida where Dieter and Heather have spent the past numerous winters. A guy could easily be swayed into buying a park model trailer here for about $12K. Too bad it's so darn far from Kitchener!
Now that we have found some decent temperatures here, guess we won't have to carry on south, to ? Peru ? Bolivia ?
Tomorrow we'll spend some time wandering ....
