COLD, WINDY AND DAMP

 ROCKPORT, TEXAS

FEBRUARY 13, 2025

We had a very uneventful day all day long trying to play in the 52F damp winds showing us around. We did manage to accomplish keeping our sanity. Most every where we moseyed was nearly deserted in the damp cold. Even the hard core walkers we know stayed inside the Walmart today to get in some walking distance. At least the OFM joined in the exercise in Walmart. It may have been good for him since his knees gave a bit of trouble all day long.

We stopped at a spot on the shore that was pretty well out of the wind but it just suckered the OFM cause in about ten minutes he was shaking so bad we had to get in Sierra and get him warmed up. Then he remembered that a nice section of the Tule Trail is well wind protected and maybe we could do some good there.

We got there just the same time as a local couple with their pup showed up and the pup and the OFM hit it off nicely. The group got in about a half mile each way in and back while protected pretty well by the trees.

The OFM spent the rest of the day trying to formulate a plan for our future until we roll to grandkid land at the start of their summer. Our next cold weather front is supposed to hit soon and be too cold for a more westerly loop for now. We are still hoping to get over to the Rio Grande River near Roma, Texas before we roll back east but this weather is acting so different than we are used to we do not now what to plan yet.

So everyone relax and have some extra fun to make up for the OFM and his laziness. We plan to work on it again tomorrow. Please wish us good luck.
