WE ARE NOW IN THE LONE STAR STATE
The weather today was mainly cloudy with sunny breaks, a high of 72F. and the low last night was 46F.
During the drive over we continued to see a lot of flat land covered by water. It did get a little more hilly as we entered Texas.
We crossed over the Mississippi again, this is a huge river!
Raised roadway over wetlands
This is Atchafalaya Intracoastal Waterway.
We had to get a run at this bridge.
We arrived at our new location in Beaumont around 2 o'clock this afternoon and had time to look around, take a bicycle ride around the campground which appears to be about 70% full. They also provide a free breakfast every day. We are going to check it out tomorrow. There are a lot of Texan RVs here but we noticed quite a selection of other out of state units as well as one from Ontario. Later in the evening a rig pulled in beside us and it was a couple we parked beside back in Mississippi.

Pool at the campground - don`t see any ice on it!!
We have noticed the price of gas has fluctuated a fair bit since we entered the states. The most expensive gas so far was 3.56 gal. in Louisiana and the cheapest here in Texas at 2.99.
