Back to the beginning

We are parked at Marina Village, a camping club located on Lake Livingston, where John and I purchased  a membership back in 1976.  It is still one of the most beautiful places (to me) that we've been.  Maybe it just seems like home or something. 
Big tall pine trees right along the shore, with all kinds of amenities (piers, docks, activity building with laundry, chapel in the pines, two swimming pools, hot tubs, club house with snack bar. It even has access to the adjacent subdivision's golf and restaurant facilites.  Now ask me how many of those things we use .... just the lake view. 
But there are only a few people here right now, maybe a dozen scattered around the entire place, so there is lots of space for the dogs to get excercise off leash, which they love.  Bugsy especially LOVES this place because it has a million squirrels.
The town of Trinity is only 3 or 4 miles away .... a nice little town: one or two good restaurants, a grocery ... has a Sonic AND a DQ!  But Vera got into a shopping mood, and had to travel probably 50 miles to the nearest mall (an Outlet Mall) down below Huntsville. 
Our little home on wheels is really looking like Christmas.... of course in a space so small, it only takes a few decorations to make a big difference.  But it does look nice ..... and right now.... Ms. Santa (Vera) is baking Christmas cookies in the convection oven.   MMMM-M !!
Later,
Marilyn
