  • Vandenburg AFB FamCamp (March 5) 2026

    Vandenburg AFB FamCamp (March 5) 2026

    The camper needs some repairs. We have had it scheduled and knew we would be dropping it off. It works out decently, as it is my scheduled time to go to Dallas, so Ed and Scooby are going to fly to Dallas with me while the camper is in the shop! We stayed one night…

  • Seabreeze FamCamp (Feb 12-Mar 5) 2026

    Seabreeze FamCamp (Feb 12-Mar 5) 2026

    We have had this stay reserved for about a year. I was so excited when we booked this stop because it is literally two blocks from Aunt Jan’s house. I had no idea how hard it would be to pull in and see an area that I have visited many times before and feel that…

  • Gila Bend FamCamp (Jan 15-29) 2026

    Gila Bend FamCamp (Jan 15-29) 2026

    This is our first stay at Gila Bend FamCamp. I was hesitant, as it is a very isolated area and in the middle of the desert, which initially made me think I would be miserable here. The campground is all gravel and low bushes. All of the sites are very spacious and open. Surprisingly, this…

  • Quail Ridge RV Park (Jan 1-15) 2026

    Quail Ridge RV Park (Jan 1-15) 2026

    Happy New Year! 2026, can you believe it? Time is flying. We arrived to Quail Ridge RV Park and got settled in. We have stayed here previously during our very first year. It’s an ok campground. It has gravel sites and no grass. There are goat heads everywhere, so Scooby hates it. There seem to…

  • Loves RV Stop (Dec 31) 2025

    Loves RV Stop (Dec 31) 2025

    We did just an overnight at Love’s in Las Cruces. Had Wendy’s at the Love’s for supper and didn’t even unhook the truck. We have had really good luck with the Love’s RV Stops, they are a great overnight when your destinations are far apart. On our drive to Las Cruces, we saw this giant…

  • TT Medina Lake (Dec 4-25) 2025

    TT Medina Lake (Dec 4-25) 2025

    Lake Medina is one of my favorite campgrounds. It is funny, because most everyone in the Thousand Trails groups complain about this campground. They can’t seem to get over the fact that the lake is dry most of the time. The city of San Antonio empties it for agriculture and city usage. It is confusing,…

  • Corpus Christi NAS FamCamp (Nov 19-Dec 4) 2025

    Corpus Christi NAS FamCamp (Nov 19-Dec 4) 2025

    We arrived in Corpus Christi on Nov 19th. We got a great site right by the bay. We saw dolphins as we were setting up! It is VERY windy here and hot. HOT in late November, that is the Texas I know. Ugh! We enjoyed walking around in the evenings when it cooled down. The…

  • TT Lake Conroe (Oct 31-Nov 19) 2025

    TT Lake Conroe (Oct 31-Nov 19) 2025

    Trick-or-Treat! We arrived in Willis, Texas and got all settled well ahead of time to have fun passing out candy to the trick-or-treaters. We got a site in the new area up front. It was ok, but I would have preferred a site in the back, more ‘campground’ area. We got quite a few kiddos,…

  • TT Lake Texoma (Oct 2-31) 2025

    TT Lake Texoma (Oct 2-31) 2025

    We arrived at TT Lake Texoma on October 2nd. We initially had a site in the very front area where all the new spots are. The site was alright, but we prefer to be in the areas that feel more like camping, not a parking lot. These new areas that several of the Thousand Trails…

  • Burkburnett/Wichita Falls KOA (Oct 1) 2025

    Burkburnett/Wichita Falls KOA (Oct 1) 2025

    We just stayed overnight here on our way to Texoma. We probably could have pushed it and made it to Texoma, but we initially had something we were going to do here, but those plans were cancelled. We did take advantage of having an On the Border to have supper at! The campground is really…
