Bad Timing

Well, E headed off to Texas and ended up in the storm of the century.
She started with a visit with aunt A in Atlanta.  A good time was had by all.  Then she stopped back at Cumberland island to visit a friend she made while working there.  Next up, a successful car camping experience in northern Florida.  She said several people complimented her on her set up.  Then she visited some friends in Baton Rouge.  She should have stayed there.  But she pushed on to Sea rim state park in Texas.
And the storm hit.  She camped in her car, but the next morning she said everything was frozen, even the door to the bathroom.
Ice went all the way to the ocean.

 Next, she drove to Port Arthur and got a motel room for the night.  Then she headed further south hoping to get out of the deep freeze.  She ended up in Corpus Christi and there were no available hotel rooms.  So once again to a State Park to camp with 50 mph winds.  Her last comment was “ It’s supposed to snow in del rio the day I wanted to stop there. This trip could not align with the completely uncalled for storms any worse.” At least she will have some good stories to tell.

  1. Sounds like that storm was an average winter day in Alberta but not Texas!
    Hope she makes the rest of her trip safely.
