Location: New Rockdale RV Park; Mansfield, Louisiana
This is the seventh part of a multi-part posting of some of the "wow" moments from my travels. I started putting these together while I was stationary during Brandon's recovery from his second stroke. Today is day 98 since his second stroke and he continues to improve, little by little, each day.
I will be hitting the road on the 29th of this month so I am trying to get up to date on these Wow posts. Remember, if you want to see more about a place, use the archive on the right side of the blog post. For my southern friends,,,,, Over yonder >>>>>>>>

| This trip was a circle through Texas with many of the campgrounds in the great State Parks of Texas. |
 |
| Some of the CCC work from the 1930's at Tyler State Park, Tyler, Texas |
 |
| Great walking trails at Tyler State park for "non-flat belly" men like me. |
 |
| A children's pool/wading pool built by the CCC nearly 80 years ago at Tyler State Park. |
 |
| I camped in a Prairie Dog town at Lake Arrowhead State Park outside of Wichita Falls, Texas. |
 |
| The "Falls" part of Wichita Falls, Texas |
 |
| The upper reaches of the Red River near Wichita Falls, Texas |
 |
| The Texas Longhorns at Copper Breaks State Park, near nothing, Texas |
 |
| Little girl meets Longhorn |
 |
| The rugged beauty of Caprock Canyon State Park |
 |
| More Caprock Canyon State Park |
 |
| Buffalo on parade at Caprock Canyon State Park. |
 |
| Cadillac Ranch outside of Amarillo, Texas. |

Palo Duro Canyon.
A major Wow. |

 |
| West Texas Sunset at Amarillo |
 |
| Another west Texas sunset. This one at San Angelo State Park, San Angelo, Texas |
 |
| Aw,,,, the Gulf of Mexico at the Bolivar Peninsula |
 |
| Ferry crossing into Galveston, Texas |
 |
| The Pleasure Pier in Galveston |
 |
| Sunset over Galveston and the Houston Shipping Lane |
 |
| It's always a sad "wow" to see this location. The turn ahead is leaving the Bolivar Peninsula and heading to High Island and eventually home to Louisiana. It was a stormy day and the Gulf was angry, but it made it all the more "wow-full". |
Ya'll take care of each other. I'll Cya down the road.
