STUCK OUT IN HOUSTON

Yesterday we left the yard in Whitsett and drove to Houston. Our plan was to stay at the Elks lodge. But it was full. We sat in the parking lot and called several other rv parks but they were all full. They are building a new pipeline and the workers have taken all  the sites. We found a place in Beaumont at a Passport America campground where we are staying three nights. 
Went out to dinner at Cheddars. Had to wait about half an hour for a table but the food was decent.
Today we went out for a late breakfast at Waffle House, one of our favorites. Than on to the very large mall. Linda was looking for new jeans and a blazer. Found the jeans but no blazer. Stopped at the Verizon store and found out that our contract was up on the mifi device and that we could use that to upgrade to a new phone. I got the Samsung Gallaxy 4. Bigger screen and more features. Linda will upgrade in June.
Tomorrow down to Port Arthur for sightseeing and the museum of the gulf. http://www.museumofthegulfcoast.org/
 Tuesday we will move to the Elks lodge here in Beaumont for several days. Not very nice, but cheap at $10 a nite.
Lots of good restaurants here and some touristy stuff to see.
Have a great day
Love to all of ya
Jim and Linda
