Our original plans had us wintering in Tucson with a planned field trip in the truck back to Florida for a couple of weeks to have some long overdue doctor visits. We are of an age where scheduling doctor appointments is not an option but a necessity. The on-going Covid unpleasantness prompted us to change those plans and take the RV east with us. We made arrangements to rent a condo in Cape Canaveral for a few months and we were able to store the coach in our old storage facility, so after Bryce we headed east at what was, for us, a rapid pace. Our initial goal, other than a quick stop in Albuquerque for annual maintenance for Sybil, was to stop near Baton Rouge to visit family.

So, off we went. Arizona, New Mexico, and Texas fell into our rear view mirror. We saw trees that were millions of years old here, just missed getting caught in severe winter conditions in North Texas, camped with alpacas near Dallas, and rode out Election Day on a bayou in East Texas. Which is a story in its own right.

But we made it without too many mishaps. Here are a few shots from along the way. Next time: east of the Mighty Mississippi for the first time in a while!
