Living the Dream with Joyce: November 25th

On Wednesday I left Woodville to join Rob and Helen at the Bayou Bend RV Park in Baytown for another three days. On the way there, on a country road surrounded by fields and a few farmhouses, my RV broke down. Good Sam to the rescue again - but I had to wait six hours for a towtruck to arrive, and all garages were closed for Thanksgiving, so they towed me to the park (34 miles away) and here I sit until Monday, when businesses open again! It was a very tedious six hours, although I was a bit entertained by two guys shooting in the field next to me - not sure what they were shooting, but they had two dogs who appeared to be retrieving things,so probably small game . . . Later, the same two guys spent about half an hour doing wheelies in the field - spewing up lots of dirt - reminded me of some teenagers I have known over the years.
Finally, I got towed to my spot in the Bayou Bend RV Resort - wouldn't you know, I'd be stuck in the most expensive park I've stayed in for years - and the wifi transmission box was stolen, so no wifi except in the laundry room, which luckily is an awesome room with easy chairs and tables! This park is really used by guys who work in the oil factories across the road - no real rv community feeling here!
Thursday was Thanksgiving - and an awesome one it was! I was invited to join Rob and Helen's family at their son's mother-in-law's house for dinner - actually, for the afternoon and evening - complete with small children, games, fabulous food and fun!
Friday, Rob de-oxidized the front of my RV and waxed and polished it so it shines!! He had already washed it while at Woodville.
