Our first night as a true fulltiming family was spent at Colorado Lake Thousand Trails in Columbus, TX. Its about an hour outside of Houston. We were excited to be able to use our Thousand Trails membership. It was a great camping resort with many activities for us to do. We love to play mini golf.
Beckey's Cafe Pie |
This neat little log cabin was just across the street from Beckey's.
While walking around we came to a great bead and metal art shop. The girls and I decided to start "traveling bracelets". We bought our bracelets and first beads there. So many to choose from, but we finally narrowed it down. Pictures to come.
So we loved Beckey's Cafe pie so much that we decided to go back the next day for lunch and the again for breakfast. It was equally delicious.
We enjoyed our time at Colorado River until Feb. 3rd. We then headed to the Blue Bell Ice Cream Factory and took the wonderful tour. We learned quite a bit about the ice cream making process and were rewarded at the end with a free scoop of ice cream. Yum!
After devouring our yummy reward we headed out to Livingston, TX and became official fulltimers! We signed up with the mail forwarding service Escapees! I was so excited! We had done it! We were on the road and now had a way to get our mail. Our next big destination was New Orleans, LA!!
