Texas Winter

Hello Friends....

Here we are into the month of February already and still not many photo's from us. We are in Texas at the same State Park we stayed in when we were in this part of the world 2 years ago. That is one of the main reason for no pictures, as we really haven't seen anything new are exciting to post yet. 

We are in the midst of a Texas Winter at present. The temperatures outside are quite cool for this part of the country and they remind me of when we go camping in the late Fall and early Spring in Alberta. Last night the mercury dropped to 28F which would be in the -5C range I think. We had to leave our water running all night at a slow drip so our pipes didn't freeze up. We never thought that we would be having this kind of weather here. Apparently we are in for more of the same tonight and tomorrow night with a chance of snow on Thursday. At least it will only be a few inches at best and will not need to be shoveled. I can't say that we are missing the snow too much and are very glad that we are not having to deal with what has been left on our front yard at home! Better to leave that to the younger members of the family!!

Last month got news from the home front that we are going to be grandparents again (#15 is on the way)! A very exciting bit of news for us and we are thrilled. The newest member of the Mearns clan is arriving compliments of Holt and Savanna, who are getting married in July. We are hoping that maybe this newest member might be a little boy for Poppa!! Time will tell.

Hope that you are all keeping warm and happy! Would love to hear from you via email any time!
