The four letter word of gate guarding.....RAIN

Good morning from mud city

  South Texas, when it rains, turns to mud. The caliche is mighty dusty when its dry and the dust is very fine and gets into everything. You can not seal up your rv tight enough to keep it out.

  But...when it rains like it has here for the last two days all of that dust turns to mud. And walking in the mud to check in a truck is a chore. The suction wants to pull your shoes off, and we have our shoes laced very loose so that we can just slip into them quickly.

   We have a piece of plywood by the rug that we can wipe a lot of the mud off on, and the water hose is right there to rinse off the shoes and the plywood for the next use. Saves a lot of mud on the steps and rugs inside.

  The trucks really get muddy. Here are a few pictures I took yesterday....



I had problems getting the pictures in. They changed settings on the blogger and had to upload the pictures to Picas and than put on blog. That took a while to figure out, so this post is a couple of days later than when I started typing it.
It is sunny today (Thursday) and the mud is drying out.
Have a great day,
love to all of ya
Jim and Linda
