La Feria and Blue Lagoons RV Parks


February 1 - 28, 2017 La Feria RV Park

March 1 - April 30, 2017 Blue Lagoons RV Park


I caught the camp crud to Hummingbird Cove RV Park so I mostly stayed to myself at this park.  I didn't get involved with their activities or use the pool. 

We had to replace 2 of our slide toppers that were damaged by the wind, so we bought screen covers for the front and side windows and wheel covers.  We also bought a screen shield that attaches to our awning, but we didn't use it since it came 2 days before we left.  It will come in handy some time!

I finally felt a little better and made some new friends a couple days before we left.






I was yelled at for taking our dogs to a vacant lot to do their business. I always pick up, but it seems I can only take them to a small strip of grass.  Since I wasn't feeling good, this was an imposition.  I will not be returning to this park as I felt very unwelcomed. 


So on we went to Blue Lagoons RV Park. It's much more friendly and welcoming.


(Aside: Rockport/Fulton was destroyed on August 26, 2017 as the category 4 Hurricane Harvey made landfall near Rockport TX .  The park was also destroyed although everyone evacuated. We have a reservation to return for 2 months next spring and hope that by the time we arrive, things will be somewhat back to normal. It will be good to see old friends and hear their stories. My heart breaks for everyone who had to go through the pain. It's going to be months, even years, to rebuild.) 



We stayed for 2 months . Our friends Pris and Elaine stayed for a couple days at the sister park Lagoons and Peggy and Patricia also visited a couple days.

Our view, isn't it gorgeous?


One night a party broke out!

Lots off good food and drink, great company.
But that's a regular occurrence here



After swallowing my pride, I finally used the pool and hot tub.  Both were exhilarating.






We took a ride one day and these are some of the pictures I took of the area.




 Many gorgeous houses in the area.














I had a chance to visit the Texas Maritime Museum in Rockport TX.  It was a fascinating afternoon! 




























We had lunch at Pops Tavern after reading about the beer cap fish murals.  We talked to the designer who made the murals but I don't remember his name.






This is a beautiful view of the RV park. It doesn't look the same, but it will be better than ever some day.






We are looking forward to returning to Blue Lagoons and seeing old friends.










Next stop, our trip north and Yellowstone National Park!
