Kerrville to Port Aransas. Downhill; and south. We’ve not only moved to the eastern section of the Texas map, now we’ve moved to the southern page of the eastern section. Texas takes up four pages of the map atlas. We’re kind of in South Texas. We’re pretty far south; much farther south than San Diego, but when people refer to South Texas they generally mean The Valley. The Valley is that part of South Texas following the Rio Grande along the Mexico border. It’s not really a valley at all, it’s a hundred mile wide coastal plane with no noticeable changes in elevation. Corpus Christi is on that same coastal plain but farther north. Padre Island is a barrier island that runs for a hundred miles from The Valley all the way up to Corpus Christi. We’re on the next barrier island to the north of Padre Island, Mustang Island. We’re five miles south of the town of Port Aransas which is on the northern tip of Mustang Island. Gulf Waters RV Resort.
Eighty degrees, calm, and misty when we got here. Tonight, it’s all the way down to seventy degrees so far, and foggy. We’re on the beach. We won’t be moving once a week for a while.
