We crossed into Texas and stopped for lunch at the I 10 welcome center. I am excited about exploring a small sliver of this huge state. First stop: Martin Dies, Jr State Park. State Parks in Texas allow you to make reservations but you pick out your campsite once you arrive. We got an amazing spot right on the river (308). Another cool thing we discovered about Texas parks; you can fish for free if you cast from the shore. Mark got a fishing pole, when we bought our camper, but hadn’t used it till now. He was so excited to catch his first fish of retirement. As a footnote: while fishing one day, a baby alligator swam right up to Mark’s bobber. Supposedly, they scare the fish away, but we were excited to see the little guy.
