June 18, 2014 Travel to Abilene State Park

We left this morning about 8:00 am. We just meandered west across Texas.  Our first stop was in Marlin to eat breakfast at a Subway. We like to eat there because its quick and easy. Our next stop was a little roadside park near Hamiliton.  I just needed to walk around a little to loosen up my old joints. Our next stop was Comanche to fuel up. We decided we were going to spend two nights in Abilene State Park.   As we got close our cell phones lost signal so no navigation. We resorted to maps but it still was a challenge to find the park.  We had never been in this part of the country before. It is pretty here and not what I thought it would be. In fact since we have had some rain this year it was very green all the way here. We ran mostly backroads and enjoyed the drive.  Our campsite is wooded, somehow I managed to get a satellite signal so we head TV. Our cell phone signal is spotty here but if we go about three miles it becomes 4g again. Its good to get a day of rest before we head to New Mexico.





Rest Stop,  nice to have your own bathroom
A nice park
