From Land to Space to Sea: Three Weeks in Review

Sunday, 31 January 2016
Green Caye RV Park — Dickinson, Texas
Temps: Hi 77F (25C) / Lo 62F (17C)

When we left Galveston Island State Park on the 9th, we anticipated being in Dickinson, a city within Houston, for two weeks.

Wait a minute … I take that back.  We planned to be in Dickinson one week, and leaving the motorhome behind at the campground while we did a Caribbean cruise out of the Port of Houston during the second week.

Foggy night at Green Caye RV Park — very moody.                                           

That’s not how things turned out, however.  We ended up extending our Dickinson stay another week by stealing time away from the stop we planned in San Antonio.  Why?  That’s part of the story I will cover in this blog post to catch up with the present day.

Green Caye RV Park — Dickinson, Texas
Temps: Hi 63F (17C) / Lo 52F (11C)

I’ll do a review of our stay in Dickinson, Texas before we leave at the end of the month.  For now, a teaser to explain why we chose to stay where we did and what we did while here.

P.S. Note the date of this post … I’m a little late to the game ;-)

Galveston: Week in Review

Friday, 8 January 2016
Galveston Island State Park — Galveston, Texas
Temp Range: Hi 69F (21C) / Lo 40F (4C)

Our first week after leaving Port A for our winter Phaeton travels flew by in the blink of an eye.  Before we move on to our next stop tomorrow, I want to share what we did in Galveston.  It will be a long post, so don’t say you weren’t warned.

Our plan was to leave GWRVR on January 2.  The forecast put forth by the weather gurus suggested that was not a good idea, so we delayed our departure by a day, arriving at Galveston Island State Park (GISP) after a smooth drive on the 3rd instead.  After several gray and gloomy days in a row, it sure felt good to find ourselves in a place with sunshine and blue skies.
