So I am pretty much over being bummed because the weather just has not been as nice as we think it should be. I am now finding it way too funny listening to the weather advisories on TV. It may get down to 20 degrees here tomorrow night and a high in the 40s (if we are lucky) the rest of the week. The news is constantly warning people to prepare your animals, bundle them up.... do not let them outdoors for long periods of time, be aware of their paws getting frost bit. People are scurrying to put insulation around their water pipes and oh they are so worried about their plants. I just now heard that the schools are going to KEEP THEIR HEATERS ON all night long tonight so that the schools will be warm when the BIG FREEZE hits. OK I am really laughing now! Too frigging funny. Yesterday it was oh 50 or so out, the sun was shinning and it was only a tad breezy. We decided to wash the camper. This means you get a bucket full of soapy water and a long handled brush and you use a hose to rinse the suds off. I was dressed in my flip flops, jeans and a sweatshirt. Two fellas walked by and said to us, "We wondered how you can be doing that in this weather and now we see, ya'll are from Minnesota"! What more can I say.
We have left our very nice state park and have moved to our full service site and the Woelpern campgrounds. We are so lucky to have these full service, free sites. This one )much like the Leonard campgrounds) has a nice level lot, electricity (sewer if David needs to hook up to it to dump:) and a washer and dryer as well as home made suppers! Not bad.
As we were leaving San Felipe I had to take a few photos of some interesting barns n things.
A great rusted out water thingy (like my technical terms) sitting in a fallen down rusted out farm yard.

The barn and house of that farm yard

A cool looking barn along the way

And we spotted this train coming into town (nope it is not Ryan) and we had to wonder if the horse was going to stay put or wander onto the tracks. Thanks goodness he did not go on the tracks.

All righty then. I am going to bundle up and wait for the big freeze!
