Wow, it has been a long time since I’ve written anything on our Blog. I hope this edition finds every one has survived the winter intact

We have just begun our second season here at Cedron Creek Camp Ground on beautiful Lake Whitney in Central Texas.

We drove back to Minnesota in October, and visited with many of you while there. It was especially nice to see the kids and grand kids! While there, we were able to clean out a 10’ X 15’ Storage unit at the Laundromat. It was nice to be able to get rid of a good share of the “stuff” stored there, so we don’t have to continue paying rent there. We were lucky enough to escape Minnesota before any snow storms moved in.

Upon returning to TX the first week of December, we spent 3 months at the Waco North RV Park just north of West TX, where we had started out the fall of 2011. I was working on some cabin remodeling, adding bathrooms etc, as well as helping set up 2 new “Park Model” Cabins while Sue worked in the office.

In February we had a chance to drive over to Fort Parker State Park just a little south of Mexia, TX to visit with Dick and Judy Mott before they moved to Brazos Bend State Park down by Houston. We had a excellent visit and a very informative tour of their campground while there.

As I eluded to earlier, we moved back to Cedron Creek on the 8^th of March and are really enjoying the quiet here, with out all the Interstate 35 traffic noise 24/7. We can actually hear the birds singing in the mornings interrupted only by an occasional vehicle traveling on the county road. We have approximately 35 does and not sure how many Bucks yet but we had 5 rather large ones last season. We started out volunteering, getting some of the camp sites cleaned up a little. It was mostly brush and a couple trees that were laying down on or near some of the camp sites.

Last Monday, March 25^th, we along with Johnnie & Janet Barefield (our co-workers here), took a trip over to Liberty Hill Park on Navarro Mills Lake, to visit with another Couple we met here at Lake Whitney (Roy and Tony Ogle). They worked our position here at Cedron for the first 3 weeks of the season last year and are currently working at Liberty Hill Park on a 2 year contract which runs Winter and Summer. Tony cooked up a delicious batch of Catfish and Crappies. She also had home made Hush Puppies, Coleslaw and pickled Cucumbers made with Red Hots. Janet baked a chocolate cake for desert. Thanks for desert Janet and Thank You so much Tony and Roy for the wonderful meal and your warm hospitality!



As I said earlier, we started our second season as Gate Attendants on April 1^st, 2013. It started out rather slowly, as we only checked in our first guests today (Wednesday). I have a feeling it is partially due to the cooler weather and it is rather early in the season yet. Once school is out for the summer I’m sure it will suddenly get much busier.

We had almost an inch and half of rain the past two days. I believe that is the most we’ve had at any one time this year. We need a lot more rain as the lake is very low again.

Until next time.
