Our Pirate group having fun
April 2019 Rally in Port Aransas with our Kountry Klub Lone Star Newmar group had our "small group" getting into the fun of a pirate themed weekend. First photo we boarded a stangers RV for a group pic and the second our group had its flag and selfie to prove it.
 |
| The strangers did not know what hit them before we boarded their "ship" and you can see we recruited a few young ones for the pirate life. |

| red spider flag for the fabulous crew...we are all smiles at the fun we are having. |

April 2018 Aransas Pass
Living in a Rectangle
*It is off to Aransas Pass to get some coastal fun with our RV Newmar group.
*Wish we could stop quicker along the road to grab a pic—like when we saw a pink VW Bug on a trailer with a big white metal crown on it. (note: It was a bit rusty, been there a while) OR
like the big painted “waving” American flag done in muted but beautiful colors. OR of course all the brilliant wildflowers. (note:does anyone else think of the warning about snakes and ants in the wildflowers re picture taking when you see all that beauty?) Alas it is not a thang The Rectangle does on a two lane Texas farm to market road.
*The “cornies” are on the road moving all those fun rides and food booths to the next small town so when one of those trailers loaded with a ride has a flat it takes a village to get it changed. Luckily there is “a village” going down the road to do that.
*When putting TJ (note: Tow Jeep) into neutral don’t do it till it is connected to The Rectangle or until you know for sure the master of the hookup has told you - it is close enough or too close or to the left or to the right or whatever…
*Pilot filling stations now have Cinnabon Bon Bon Bites, 4 same great petite buns that don’t make you feel so guilty.
*Next saga on TJ. TJ towed perfect except at some point the check engine light comes on and an urgent email from Jeep U Connect (big brother of the Jeep world) comes to tell us…Action needed on your 2018 Jeep Cherokee! Your Jeep Cherokee has detected issues that require your attention on Engine and Transmission System, Oil and Fluids, Brakes and Suspension. Hmmm that’s a lot for an engine that as not been running? Called dealer in Aransas Pass, cannot see us till maybe next Tuesday and no don’t come in because they are so over booked and slammed with work they have closed their service dept to catch up!! OK, so next stop in Rosenberg they can see us on Monday….our dealer calls us back and says so go to Auto Zone and have them do a diagnostic at least to see what it says. OK off to Auto Zone with check engine light on, Jeep runs perfect, we turn off car, AZ puts in diagnostic stick then starts car and poof no check engine light and readout shows everything is fine. We leave and will have to see if the light comes back on after our next towing on Sunday…stay tuned for more TJ light adventures (or not).
*Nice and warm on the coast, but whatever the wind is blowing in or out wish it would get it done. (note: but don’t need Beyonce wind machine for hair blowing great pics)
