  1. Went to basic at Lackland, Was stationed at Randolph, got sent to Thailand came back after I got out and worked in the area for a while before moving to FW in 77. Bill
  2. Lots to see and do in SA. Look for the Pearl Historic District. Wayne, what is that restaurant that features dining on one of the boats that cruises the river? Also not on the river but interesting is Historic Market Square (big Mexican market) and some old restaurants like Mi Tierra Cafey Panaderia. That was there when I lived down there, well a long time ago.. Bill
  3. We had some nasty winds last night 75-85 mph wind gust. Lots of tree branches down. I was lucky with no major damage. Bill
  4. Google maps especially the satellite view along with the street view are good tools to look at routs and campgrounds. I have even seen where they let the google mapping truck drive through the campground. So where are you going? Are you retired? Looked at your first day, That is plenty of mileage for the first day. Bill
  5. Welcome to the forum. Well I don't know. Not enough information to give a good answer. What Rv are we talking about? Where are we talking about? When are we talking about? All these things will factor into finding places to stay. Add in, do you need full hookups? Think about this, the smaller the town the less likely there is going to be a good place to stop (unless it is near a main/major attraction) because there is no demand for campgrounds. When planning trips and stops (Like Joe) I use RV apps like https://www.rvparky.com/, www.campgroundreviews.com, google street view. Bill
  6. Welcome to the forum. I don't have any experience with that coach, so I can learn something to. Is it gas or diesel? Bill
  7. What are they going back to Chandler? Bill
  8. Welcome to the forum. Have you looked at the FMCA tire program? Make shure you know what load range you need. Bill
  9. That is good Ian and right on the beach. Bill
  10. Yes we are having a cool rainey patch of weather. Must be why they call it the rainy season. TODAY: Cloudy skies with scattered (40%) showers during the day. Winds: SE 10-25. High: 68. TONIGHT: Cloudy skies with widespread (100%) showers and storms. Strong to severe storms possible. Winds: SE 10-20. Low: 56. WEDNESDAY: Widespread (100%) showers and storms in the morning. Activity moves east...then clearing skies and warm temperatures. Winds: SW 15-20. High: 72. Bill
  11. What were the prices he quoted, out the door? Have you checked the FMCA tire prices? Bill
  12. Lots of LBJ sites out that way including the ranch and boy hood home. Last time I was at the ranch it was like a time capsule. Everything was just like he had flown in on his plane(parked outside) even the 3 tvs so he could keep an eye on all 3 networks when he ate supper. I remember seeing it on the news one time and it looks exactly like it did. Bill
  13. Ken, Welcome to the FMCA forums! The important key is you have started. Bill
  14. That is the whole problem CR-Vs don't like to be pulled with a CC. Just kidding I couldn't resist. Have you checked that the trickle charge is providing a charge? Just something to look at, when you turn the ignition switch make sure you don't slip past the acc spot. Double check that the headlights/running lights are not on. Met someone in a campground who was having problems with the battery going dead in his 2014 CR-V and if you weren't careful you could slip right past the ACC stop. I tried it and had a hard time feeling the little detent at least on his car. Let me know what you find. Bill
  15. One of maney places you should check on near Fredericksburg is Wildseed Farms. It should be a good time of the year to go look at the wildflowers. Everywhere down there the road sides should be covered with bluebonnets. https://www.wildseedfarms.com/ "Wildseed Farms has been growing fields of wildflowers for the production of seed for over 35 years. We are the nation's largest working wildflower farm with over 200 acres in Fredericksburg Texas alone." Bill
  16. You should have less sea fog there. That is more a suburb of San Antonio than the hill country. You are on the southern edge of The Hill Country" https://hill-country-visitor.com/hill-country-map/ Bill
  17. Welcome to the forum. If EdwinDHershey doesn't see your post you could send him a PM. Bill
  18. Some videos for you till you get to go fishing. http://blog.fishidy.com/2017/03/5-best-fishing-spots-texas/ Lets see if you can break into the top 50 list for stripers. https://tpwd.texas.gov/fishboat/fish/programs/fishrecords/freshwater/top50_striped.phtml This is some fishing in my old back yard. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gLR1NJ0WZxA This is good fun in the spring. https://www.fisherie.com/Stream-Fishing Bill
  19. You must go the long way to get there. I bet you need to drop a 0 on the millage. Bill
  20. There are lots of places. But I do recommend you get reservations as soon as you can. Smoky Bear Campground and RV Park, Anchor Down RV Resort, Camp LeConte Luxury Outdoor Resort, Twin Creek RV Resort. That should give you a start. Use RV Park reviews to see if you like them. Bill
