Awake 5:50am Temp 51 Overcast Overnight @ Tye, Texas

Leave the Tye RV Park @ 9:35am. Great travel day; overcast & light winds.
After 2.5 hrs, we take a rest stop break & I listen to our cell phone
messages now that we're getting a good & strong AT&T signal. I'm just not
that happy with the AT&T cell phone coverage throughout Texas. I'll
probably begin checking into other competitive plans in our spare time.

A lot of traffic as we approach Fort Worth, Texas....like 6 & 7 lanes at
times.

Arrive @ the Texas Sundown Ranch & RV Resort @ 2:45pm...45 miles North of
Dallas, TX.

Today's travel: 3+54 hrs 208.4 miles 23.4 gal used 8.96 mpg 56.8 avg
speed.

This campground was a former working ranch...now an open range, spacious
campground with a par 3 golf course, swimming pool, gym & game room, a
home cooking restaurant + many other amenities.
We get directions for the nearest Catholic Church in Denton, TX(20 min) &
attend 5:00 pm Mass @ the Immaculate Conception Church. We talk with
Monsignor Charles King before Mass & get introduced as visitors from
Alaska in church.

8:00pm Dinner: Spiced up leftover salmon...made into patties. We try a
different kind of popcorn, "Black Jewel." The unpopped kernels are black
and beige, but when popped the very small kernels are super white. We
snack on this popcorn (we prefer Act II) while watching a video from the
clubhouse library: " What the Deaf Man Heard." Interesting movie & easy
to watch.

High temp today=69 Lights out: 11:40pm
