BoonDocked in South Tucson Walmart

Nov 10, 09 We Boondocked in South Tucson Walmart on Valencia Rd. Actually the security guard asked us , and others, to move to a different area in the huge, multi-store parking lot. We all moved to an area in front of the Goodwill store & Big Lots. (just notes for future travels)

A Fun BoonDock in Kerrville, TX

Nov 7, 2009 Saturday night we boon docked at a Texas rest area at exit #514. It had WI FI as well as a dump station and potable water. The Texans know how to DO things, eh? This rest area is about 6 miles East of Kerrville TX where our friends Bill & Emily Preece live part of the year. We know them from Alamos, Sonora, Mexico.
I gave them a call & I chatted with Bill a bit & told them we were not going to unhook the trailer but just wanted to say hello.

About ½ hour later there was a knock at the trailer door. Joey opened the door & a man told him that overnight parking was not allowed and that he saw our plates were from California. He said he checked & it was registered to our names. Then he mentioned Alamos…..it was Bill playing a joke on us. It WAS Bill but Joey had only met him a couple of times in Alamos & didn’t recognize him. Then we saw Emily & we all laughed at their fun joke & nice surprise. They had brought some wine & we had a nice visit. We still smile when we mention it.

We’ll be pretty much hurrying along the I-10 until we get to Phoenix where we might have a short visit with some more Alamos friends, Jayne & Mike Williamson.
