Thursday February 19, 2009 - Leaving For Texas

By the grace and blessing of God, our family is leaving Florida and will be living one month in the San Antonio Texas area. Charles' work is allowing him to work remotely. After a few weeks of preparation, planning and packing, we left for Texas on this day, but not without a little trouble. We were ready to leave, everything was packed, the animals were in good hands with family and friends, but the car wouldn't start. Dead Battery, and pouring down rain. :( We had to hunt for the jumper cables, and jump the car in the rain. We persevered and were ready to leave. WET, but ready. After this, it was a smooth ride to our overnight destination near Hammond Louisiana. We stayed at Ticfaw State Park in our little T@B camper. We arrived at about 7:30 and left the next morning at about 5:00. To pass the time, we wrote down all the different state license tags. Today we saw 26 states.
