Hi all

Soaked up the sun at Monahan's Sandhills St Pk in Texas. Middle of oil country and I suspect also the largest employer in the area. We literally camped in amongst the sand dunes. Like being at a huge beach with no water for a long way. The dunes, I would estimate, are around 100 feet high and is fairly fine sand making it a great workout getting to the top. 

Sunsets were also wonderful and the storm clouds (we didn't get any of the storm) made for fun photos.

Some of the fun there was using snow/sand saucers and sliding down the slopes. Good for the kids as it wears them out climbing back up to go again. 

Also some interesting activity. One group looked like they were filming a new chapter of Star Wars. Costumes and camera equipment and they went off into the dunes for the day. 

There was also a young lady that had sparkly formal dresses that went off into the dunes with a photographer and balloons for a photo shoot.

And these two, just happy together.

First night there we met a nice couple from South Texas, Ben and Marika, visited for a while and enjoyed their company. 

Thursday we stayed in camp and had a workout in the sand. Of course, the Boyz , had no trouble in the sand since they have 4 paw drive and don't weigh much.

Relaxed and watched the changing of the RV's. Seems the biggest use here is overnight on the way to somewhere. It is just off of I-20 and an easy stop. I also visited with a family with a bus and 5 kids. They are working on being full time and "road" schooling their kids. Talked solar with him and gave him a new look as to trouble shoot some problem. I will never know what he finds and if anything I said will help, just hope he figures it out. 

Friday we went to Odessa, TX. Laundry, groceries, fuel and thrift stores. Picked up some BBQ after and back to camp. I visited with the neighbors and Millie caught up with a girlfriend on the phone. Had the BBQ and it was fantastic, great flavors and just wonderful ribs, brisket and sausage. Good coleslaw and jalapeno cornbread. Watched a movie and off to a good nights sleep. 

The last day there we stayed in camp and did a few things around the RV and a few walks. Also washed the sand out of the Boyz. Was 92⁰ with humidity in the single digits. Good dog drying weather. Millie sewed a bunch and we generally got things in order to pack up and travel.

So, see you at the next place and make your day great.
