Boerne Continues

We continue to sit tight in Boerne, Texas, and watch others come and go.  The park has been quite full lately.  Whenever a site opens up near us, it is not long before someone moves in.  We seem to be the anchor at this part of the park--always here, never moving.  Stagnant like a pool of tepid water providing sustenance only for blooming algae.  Maybe we are the reason people are leaving?  Could be.  Probably not.

Across our road are people from Cincinnati who are here only for a few days.  Apparently, they were told that they needed to leave by Wednesday as a large rally was expected.  We have not been given notice of eviction.  Should be fun, elbow to elbow, awning to awning.  Donna will be putting off streaking through the park until later.  She was SO looking forward to it.

We are actively discussing staying here until mid-April.  The weather in the mid-west does not appear conducive to an early, warm, spring.  The weather here has been pretty nice with day times in the 60s and 70s and nights in the 30s and 40s and sometimes even in the 50s for lows,  We had talked about going east into Mississippi in mid-March and following the Great River north following spring's arrival.  We wanted to visit some corps of engineering parks, etc.  But with the Great Sequester now upon us, we are concerned that the parks will not be open.  Oh, well. 

It has been windy on occasion with lots of dust.  It seems the north winds bring juniper and cedar pollen levels soaring.  The local Walgreen's thanks us whenever these winds blow.  Our sinuses are both negatively affected.  The wind does, however, has positives especially in the evening.  Sunsets are terrific:





Better than 2 feet of snow.
