I tried putting my destination address into the GPS, but it would have taken me on an awful lot of side roads, and added 20 miles to my journey, so I didn’t use it. There were a couple of times when the directional signs were hidden behind overpasses! Yikes! There were also several car drivers that wouldn’t pass me, but wouldn’t let me change lanes either. I hate it when that happens.
Once I got through Dallas, I hit my easy button. It helps dissipate my tension and makes me smile to hear someone say “That was easy!” Of course, I talk back to it and say “That’s what you think!” :) Sometimes, I use even stronger language to disagree. :) Once outside of Dallas, the dreaded winds picked up, and the last 30 miles of my 287 mile journey was pretty white knuckle. I would have stopped sooner, but there aren’t many campgrounds along this stretch of I-45. I ended up at American RV Park in Corsicana, TX. The reviews weren’t great on this campground, but I didn’t have much choice. Actually, after stopping here and talking with the owner, I’d stop here again. Best part of our chat was that after giving him some input about Escapees and workamping, he gave me a discount on my fee for the night. :) I was really happy to be off of the road, and get the AC going. It was close to 90* inside the rig after I set up.
We are now surrounded by tornado warnings, and a tornado has touched down not too many miles from here. The thunder is rumbling, and Emma is hiding under the table next to my feet. :( I’ll be keeping my eyes and ears tuned to the sky tonight!
Thanks for stopping by….talk to you later, Judy
