We have been enjoying the Christmas activities around town including the street fair and the evening parade. The parade was astounding for a small town -- it ran for over an hour!
Escapees is the RV club we belong to which provides our mail forwarding service and advice and many items through their website. Part of the advice is about how to become a Texan. We did that on December 12 (a date that will live in infamy). We left our site about 10 am and returned by about 3:30 with all our work done. The vehicles had been inspected; we had gotten the license plates; we had received our driver's licenses (including Joyce taking the exam and driving test for a special license because our motorhome is so heavy!). That even included time to drive to Lufkin to the Social Security office to get a document verifying Joyce's social security number as she didn't have her card with her.
Saturday we will put the RV in storage and head to Houston to fly to Seattle for Christmas.

Congratulations on becoming "paper" Texans. You join a family of many.
We are in San Diego doing our See's Candy job for the holidays.
This will be Fred's last year. Now
that we have a house again, he wants to stay home. Only a few weeks to go until we head back to AZ.
Merry Christmas & Happy 2007 to your both - Geri & Fred
Sorry -- you are not "Texans" - just "Paper Texans" as Geri says. You gotta actually live here for a bit longer than a month or two. Stay in Texas through a full summer and then we "might" let you claim to be one of us!!! Tee Hee. Once you get back to the rig after Christmas, how about heading a few miles north to see us for a day or two? We have a RV park just a block away now. Would love to see you. Have a great Christmas and a very Happy New Year. Love, Jan and Dave
