Batty Performance

Comfort Castle Location: Rockport, Texas
Adventure Location: Rockport, Texas

The great news is that the new batts are doing wonderful. Wal-Mart batts in the morning after use during the evening and night 12.19 volts. Golf cart batts this morning after use during the evening and night 12.58 volts. Now that is more like it should be according to my amperage use.

More good news was waiting for me this morning. Here is the outside temperature when first viewed today.

Those are the RIGHT kind of temps for humans like me.

The rest of the day was spent traveling to visit John ( http://travlinwithjohn.blogspot.com/ ), visiting John or driving the two hours back to the Castle. We had a great visit and ended up at a Whataburger for lunch since that was what was available as we explored some back country. He is a really great guy. We have crossed paths three times in our travels now and hope to cross each other a few more times. This was snapped as the Truck was pulling out this afternoon. That is John on the right.

The trip back to the Castle went well and it was a bit after dark when the Team returned from this effort. Visiting friends is a great way for trying to have tooooo much fun. TheOFM.

  1. Thanks for the info on the golf cart batteries! I am going to try find that brand and have 2 put in my motorhome before I leave MN in about 1 week (hopefully if I am not snowed in.)

    I see water in the background of John's picture......and the sites look nice. Any chance of letting me know the name of campground or at least the town? Hopefully they would accept my German Sheperd and seven month old Rottie.

  2. Thank you for the link. I went to the website...I had talked to the lady about a year ago. The pet policy is not over 40#....but she did say my German Sheperd was okay. I did not have my puppy yet.

    The night before I was to pull into my full hookup site I was told that there was no sewer in that area.....that I had to dump sewer waste into a blue tote they would provide for me and drag to dump site. That would be a nightmare for me...doing it by hand. I declined and went to my favorite place....The National Seashore.

  3. The National Seashore does not have sewers anywhere either. At Malaquite campground they have a dump station and fresh water. No electric anywhere.
