Wednesday 2/14 Foggy overcast morning. Only going 40 miles today, so no need for a early start. Cruise Del Rio a bit but end up back at Walmart. Seems like everywhere i turn there is something that is on my list. Fill the order and go load up the schooner. Good-bye Del Rio, oh wait,…

Tuesday 2/6 Late neighbors, setting up by flashlight last night. #35 will work. I’ll just sleep with no CPAP for a couple of nights. With a Portable solar charger, running the generator would be a non issue. Have you ever hear them? Solar chargers that is? Quiet! Up early, a little cloudy, mid 50’s. Walk…
