Saturday was laundry day and a day to relax. I even took an afternoon nap after doing my chores! We were at Hidden Lakes RV Park in Beaumont, which had great facilities. Really nice individual shower/restrooms and a nice little laundromat. Saturday is obviously the day that the permanent residents do laundry, so I was glad I got mine in early, because it stayed busy all day long.
We found the rest areas in Texas along I 10 to be more like Welcome Centers, and each was quite different. When we chatted with the attendant here, I asked him why it was such a big complex, and he said, "I guess they just had some money." :-)
The last rest area we stopped at was in Guadalupe County and was very different.
The interstate has lots of wildflowers growing on the shoulders and in the median, unfortunately, I could not get many good pictures, but I sure enjoyed looking at them as we went by! The speed limit in many areas was 75 and boy did we get passed a lot.
We got settled into our campsite in time to watch the end of the Master's coverage today, then finally made it to a Walmart to pick up some groceries and other things we needed, plus fueled up the truck and hit the ATM for some cash. Then, back home for tacos and some TV. Sightseeing on tap for tomorrow!
Take care, and visit us often as we move along.
