It’s been a while since we posted!
Ok, on the advice of one of our Pioneer RV Park neighbors, we went out for pizza at the Gaff in Port Aransas.
Pizza was very good, but we missed the Belt Sander Race so here’s a link to a previous Gaff Belt Sander Race.
NEXT: Jeepin on Padre Island. We drove on the beach to Milepost 30!

Can You Hear Me Now?
First, I think it pays to be close to a cell tower. I’m pretty sure that we’re parked right under a Verizon tower . . . today’s cell download speed was about 50 Mbps, yesterday it was 90 Mbps.
What I Did To My Class A Today
I “fixed” my shower door so it wouldn’t fall off after traveling.
Shower Door
On our shower door’s top hinge, there’s a pin that holds the door on. Sometimes after a long trip, the pin would work its way out. We wouldn’t notice anything was wrong until we tried opening the shower door — then it would fall out into our hands.
I tried using duct tape to hold the pin in place, but it didn’t work well and it looked really dumb — as duct tape fixes typically do.
So I drilled a small hole through the hinge and the pin. Really slowwwww work. Then I inserted a wire to hold the pin in place. Voila! It still looks pretty dumb, so I’ll use a small screw in place of the wire . . . later.
Better Than Duct Tape

We’ve been wanting to get into this park for a couple of years . . . and we’re here for a month.
Walk This Way
It’s just a short walk to the Gulf of Mexico.

San Antonio Missions
We took a day to visit three of the five missions in San Antonio. While the Alamo is one of the five, it is not part of the National Historical Park. The four missions part of the park are
We visited Mission Concepcion and San Jose. There are all located with a few miles of each other. Mission San Jose was the most impressive, mainly because of its size.

River Walk Area (click to enlarge)
We drove to down town San Antonio and went to the River Walk area first because we were hungry. We ended up splitting an enchiladas meal at an outdoor cafe. The meal included the best tortillas we ever had.
After lunch we took a boat tour of the River Walk . . .
When the tour finished, we walked over to the Alamo . . .
