The Woman really did good work!

The Woman had worked hard to get us reservations at the KOA in South Padre Island. When she first called, they were booked and had no room for us. Later, they had part of the time, but not all of it, so she took what she could. Later she called and was able to book a couple different sites to cover the time, but we would have to move in-between. Later she got one month in a site that allowed us to nose Colectiva into a view of the bay and the sunsets. Later she got the other two months in a similar site when someone cancelled. She kept on top of it all the time, and it paid off!

Now we know why it was so hard. The KOA is large, but the Cameron County Park next door has maybe 2 or 3 times the sites. Today we were wakened by local police activity with lights flashing, generators and flood lights, and lots of commotion. We didn’t know what was up. We later learned that each year they hold a lottery in mid-January for the sites in the County Park. Hundreds of people show up, get a number, and essentially wait all day to see if their number is called, and they are lucky enough to score a site for a year from now. Sheesh!

Good work Woman!

Talk to you soon!
