Visiting our Public Lands

One of the most amazing things we get to see as full-time RVers is the public lands in our great nation . While in Rockport, we drove almost an hour to visit Padre Island National Seashore . It did NOT disappoint. The day we went was very windy, but the beach was clear and sunny.

The art of Eric Karbelling in Corpus Christi

While in Corpus Christi, we made a special effort to seek out this amazing piece of mural work by artist @erickarbeling . I first saw Eric’s work in Alpena, MI and instantly fell in love.

Corpus Christi has an amazing public art trail

Corpus Christi has an amazing public art trail . It encompasses the whole city, but in one small area of downtown, you can see over 40 different murals. Some of these are permanent installations and some are temporary while buildings are being renovated.

It's no secret that we love ice cream

It’s no secret that we love ice cream! While in Rockport, we found a great little ice cream shop called Grandma B’s Sweet Treats . They have a selection of candy and a nice selection of Blue Bell Ice Cream.

The sunsets in Rockport are amazing

The sunsets in Rockport are amazing! Taken on two different days, we were astonished by the colors in the sky (and how different they were from each other!). One was a moody deep pastel color palette and the other was bright yellows and oranges with a light pastel palette after the sun set. Each was gorgeous!

From Brenham to Rockport

After we left Brenham we headed to Rockport for a week. We stayed at the KOA which was recently rebuilt. Everything had been recently updated after hurricane Harvey left the area devastated in 2017. The showers and laundry were well maintained and the facility is gated. While we didn’t use the pool or the clubhouse, they did have a couple activities scheduled the week we were there and many people did participate.

Blue Bell Creameries in Brenham, TX

Our friends told us about the Blue Bell Creameries being in Brenham, TX. Since we were there right before Thanksgiving the factory observation deck was closed but we took a self-guided tour of their museum and grounds. We also stopped in their ice cream shop for a $1 cup of deliciousness!
