Back in Rockport

We arrived back home in Rockport around 2pm Tuesday in warm sunny weather.  We unpacked and started taking down the Christmas decorations. I installed the new yard art as in the picture above.   The flamingo on the right got to much sun and is darker than the other.  Linda picked out the Sago Palms shown.  Ate a light dinner and relaxed.  We stopped at Cabelas and Camping World on the way back and picked up a few supplies and some fishing gear.  Linda gave me a Orvis Saltwater reel for Christmas.  Our nephew Chad is coming in on Monday 1/2 for a few days so that we can go fishing.  Wednesday we did our shopping for groceries and spent some time just looking around the area.  We had dinner at the Bakery Cafe in Aransas Pass with our Heartland RV group and Linda and I each had Chicken Fried Steak, all I can say is OMG it was great.  Thursday we drove over and took the ferry to Port Aransas where we visited some shops.  Friday was a clean up day but Saturday I spent installing a new outside shower.  We had one but had never used it and I started noticing some water where it was located, seems that it had a hole in it.  They don' make just parts for them but you have to buy a totally new one and it was not the same size.  I had to trim out some of the fiberglass and put in a new one.  It looks good.  Dan and Karen some Heartland friends came by and we visited.  We stayed in for New Year's but had a fire in the new firepit our other nephew Todd got us.  Today Sunday we did clothes and watched football.  Until next time I hope you have a great New Year.
