One More Rockport TX post, then the fun begins..

April 17 - May 11, 2016

During our time in Rockport we did a lot of sightseeing. 

Early on, Patricia, Peggy and I visited a local quilting shop,
Golden Needles and Quilts (www.SewByTheBay.com).  
I just bought a sewing machine that also quilts 
so it was like Christmas time to me!













We visited Port Aransis, went to the beach..





               Saw this on the way back...




But this - why?





Went to see the Big Tree (and flowers too).



random flowers

 


And random boats and other photos about town...





Ate here one day. I never would have found it.



I loved the view...

What an entertaining night. 

           













              and a magical one.....



 We left Rockport on May 11 heading toward Florida.
 We had an appointment May 16 to get some work done on our coach.
 Unfortunately we didn't arrive until June 3, several weeks later.
 I'll tell you all about it next time so stay tuned!
In the meantime, we loved Rockport and all the friends we made 
and look forward to coming back next year!

Rockport Texas

We arrived in Rockport Texas on April 17, 2016. 



We had planned to stay for a week with Peggy and Patricia and their families, but we decided to stay for the month instead.


Best decision ever! 





We were parked in a primo spot, overlooking the bay. 




















Went to the dog park the first day.




We walked on the pier and saw lots of jellyfish. So glad we weren't in the water with them.



Angry water.



 We toured the area while everyone reminisced, 
pointing out where they had been, what they had done, 
childhood memories of being in Rockport as children. 



  
I just love the color of this house, so tropical and serene.





The giant blue crab lives!

Over and out for now, 
stay tuned for more about our stay in Rockport!
