Where Are We Today
Tres Rios RV Park
Glen Rose Tx
As documented in Patsy's blog, here, we are on a slow
trek back home. We started out with one night on the road and then five nights
in beautiful Elephant Butte State Park.

With another two nights at Coleman RV Park in Brownfield Texas, then to our present location. We will have been here for two weeks when we depart Saturday morning, March 23rd/19.

We have enjoyed our first time here, exploring the park,
the City of Glen Rose, Granbury and Dublin, where Dr. Pepper was once bottled,
I am sure we will come back.
So, the real reason for this little blurb, is that I
noticed on Patsy's side bar, that my blog was getting down near the bottom. I
thought I better write something to keep myself in good status.
Tackling a
couple of jobs, first washing and waxing " Black Beauty " and then
the "Beast"." Black
Beauty "( our truck ) has been washed a couple of times, but not waxed, so
after a trip into Granbury to the do it yourself car wash, it was back to the
park and do a good wax job.
Black Beauty sure shines, need to work on the running boards |
Patsy likes to take pics of me working |
Next was the washing of the "Beast" ( our
trailer), at this park, if you want to wash your trailer, there is a $10.00
fee, which I happily paid. The trailer hasn't been washed since last summer and
it was sure dirty, especially the bottom half, from all the traveling we have
done since leaving home. When we purchased the trailer, there was a protective
coating put on, so you don't need to wax it, it shines just like the day we
bought.
The suite sure looks clean and shiny now too |
Yes I know it will get dirty again on the way home,
that's ok, I still like it to look nice when I can. Arizona has very hard water
which will leave the trailer spotty when you wash, unless you can dry it as you
go, it is not a nice job. There are RV
companies that will come into parks and wash your rig for you using
filtered water so it doesn't leave spots, at $60.00 and up.
Texas water here at this park is not hard, so starting at
the front and down the left side while those areas were in the shade, I washed
and dried as I went. Took a break until the sun moved and then did the back and
right side, so much better.
There you have it, this should put my blog back near the
top of side bars for awhile. When we are back home, I will write more as we
have some projects, two on the go, "the Hangar" and my "Stinson
Reliant" repair and a couple of new ones. So I hope you will stay tuned
for those.
