My Incredible Luck–I Gotta Share

 

Since yesterday was our last day at Lake Conroe for a few months,

I wanted to make one more pass with the camera. . .I was really trying

to get a shot of a water moccasin that I had spotted at one of the ponds. . .

alas. . .no luck!  but. . .I did get this incredible shot

of this momma Mallard. . .she’s set her nest up right at the edge of the hot tub. . .

and then. . .the most incredible thing happened.

I had walked around to the “Bass Pond” and sat down at a picnic table. . .

because I could hear birds all in the edge of the brush, I had turned on the camera,

and was scanning with the high power lens to see if I could get a shot of one of them. . .

Lo and behold. . .this is what flew right into my view finder. . .

I just held down the button and started clicking. . .

I was thrilled. . .

Full Time RV Travel–Things are Looking Up at Lake Conroe

Lake Conroe, just out of Houston TX

is looking much better

I took this picture from the boat dock at Thousand Trails last October. . .

We took this shot today. . .and although the lake is still four feet below normal. . .

it’s definitely looking much, much better.

The carp. . .

and gar were certainly making a big splash,

doing whatever it is they were doing

in the grass beds around the perimeter of the lake. . .

Even with all the rain. . .

we are certainly enjoying the beautiful spring weather,

and all the wildflowers that are popping up. . .

like these golden eyed daisies. . .

 

We hope you are doing the same as you head out on your next adventure. . .

Safe travels,

Janice and Dave

Full Time RV Living–Evans Escapades–Life in the Slow Lane

Other than the thunder rumbling overhead,

and the rain pounding on the roof,

it’s been very, very quiet around here,

It’s raining so hard, water is pouring

down the side of the window,

and standing in the streets.

I certainly hope it will all drain right

into Lake Conroe. . .which is still

down about four feet.

 

We’ve taken advantage of some down time

to get some projects done

 

 

We got rid of Dave’s sad and pathetic desk,

and our file cabinet, which had seen a

few too many rough roads,

and replaced it with this setup

which we designed for our space.

I completely decluttered my desk,

and the entertainment center,

painted the entire background black,

which allows all of the components to blend in.

Once I get my curtains hung, it will be complete.

 

Speaking of decluttering,

I’ve been cleaning out cabinets,

drawers, and pantries.

Here’s my collection of stuff

that needs to be dropped

off at Goodwill on our

next trip to town.

I have almost all of our music CD’s

copied to the computer. . .

 

Only a few boxes of vacation videos

and pictures to go. . .

Dave only has two classes left to teach

before we head to Colorado for the summer. . .

so we’ll just enjoy the redbuds blooming.

 

Next weekend is our annual family reunion. . .

Should be a great time seeing all the cousins,

aunts, and uncles. . .

 

I know a lot of you are heading back north,

Travel safely,

Janice
