April 24, 2019 Rainbow's End RV Park, Livingston TX

We finally hit the road on a wing and a prayer.  We left about 8 but leaving Lake Medina where we spent 20 days eleven of which were unplanned early only meant we hit morning traffic in San Antonio.  We got out if that mess about 9:30.  We decided that we would stay at Rainbows end for 2 days and postpone Catfish Haven until Friday. 
When we left Medina Lake it was pouring rain.  It rained so  hard we could hardly see the vehicle in front of us.  The first light we came to on Hwy 16 Steve couldn't stop as the roads were very slippery and wet.  He ended up going through a red light.  We stopped at a rest stop outside of San Antonio and had a potty break for us and the dogs.  We stopped at a Buc ee's for gas.
This where Steve really pissed me off. He wouldn't find a parking spot there and I really had to go potty when we stopped for gas but it was almost an hour and a half later when we stopped at the Willis Post Office where we picked up our South Dakota plates!.  Then we took back roads to Livingston
Love this area and the park.  Lots of green grass. Much nicer than Medina and cooler.  We arrived here about 4 and took the dogs straight to the dog park.  Then we st up the trailer and I fixed  stuffed peppers.  After dinner we took a tour of the park.  Steve checked out the Smart Weigh and we saw the Escapees Headquarters.
We decided to make an ice cream run.  We bought some pints and split them up. They were yummy.
We traveled about 335 miles.  The Tire minder went off but I think the sensor is bad because the tire seemed fine. Another scare.
The trailer seem to travel OK with the new springs. The trailer sits up much higher.  I will have to get used to the new look.
Dishes got done then TV, shower, and reading.
