Location: Vinton, LA (High 67, Low 53)
There’s not going to be a lot to blog about this week. We are relaxing in a little campground about ten miles or so from the Louisiana-Texas border only about a mile from I-10. We really don’t hear much road noise though, which is nice.
The campground has a nice stretch of pull through sites and seems to get quite a bit of overnight traffic. Every day that we’ve been here, between 2 pm and 6, the travelers start rolling in.
Yesterday our whole line filled up, and two or three additional rigs parked over on the other side. It’s 9:30 in the morning, and they’ve all left now but one.
In our last couple of stops, we’ve gone over our usual budget for eating out and doing touristy types of things. So we’re going to be just relaxing this week and letting our bank account catch up!
I’ve done a bit of research and it looks like it may not be too tough to resist that temptation, because this looks like a pretty small town – there’s not even a Walmart! We haven’t even left the campground yet, but will have to check out the town sometime soon to find a grocery store.
So that’s the scoop from Vinton, LA…we’ll be here until Friday, when we will be heading to our next stop in Galveston.
Always a good idea to take a breather and let the bank account catch up. I rather enjoy those kinds of days.
ReplyDeleteI'll be looking forward to your stop at Galveston. I don't have too much info on TX gulf coast and would like more. From what I've read, it seems much less crowded, more windy and not much to do. Could be a nice thing though ;-)
