The Coastal Bend Area

It is hard to believe we have been in Rockport, TX for 12 days. We are parked at Drifters Resort. The campground is nice and quiet with lots of large oak trees, wildlife, and friendly people. Several times we have watched wild guinea fowls and squirrels near our RV. We were told there is also a wild potbelly pig, but we have not seen him yet.

It is so nice to hear the ocean and smell the sea air again. We spent some time trying our new kayaks on the bay near the Lighthouse Trails, however it was windy that day so we did not stay out too long on the choppy waters. Since the weather has been more windy than calm for kayaking, we have been exploring the Coastal Bend area. We have been as far north as Aransas National Wildlife Refuge and as far south as Corpus Christi. We have driven quite a bit on the beaches of Mustang Island and Padre Island. We bicycled on the bay in Rockport once, and have walked nearly every day.

There is a new album in Webshots with pictures of the Coastal Bend area.

  1. Great Pictures!! I have got to learn how to set up the album in my blog. We're sitting in one spot for awhile so I hope I have time to do that. Isn't this fun?
