#2 Bethy Creek on Lake Livingston

Through our Passport America app we found this little campground on the north end of the lake. While I'm sure that it is hopping during the summer it's fairly quiet now...except for the wind which has been just under gale force since our arrival.  Even still we've been able to watch a diehard wakeskater each day at dusk - no doubt a kid that grew up in this cove.  We tried a little motorcycle ride today but the wind sent us back to the camper in less than a hour. We instead went to the Texas Prison Museum down Hwy 19 in Huntsville. Ol' Sparky sits there quietly still prepared to light some offender up. They had lots of Bonnie and Clyde memorabilia which was interesting since we were in Mount Lebanon just a couple weeks ago where the famous takedown actually happened. Yesterday we visited Daisy's Diner in Riverside, TX which has karaoke on Tuesday nights. This was a small town gathering at its finest - everyone knew one another and the David's chicken fried steak and my guacamole burger was divine.  Tonight we'll let the wind rock us to sleep while the sounds of the lake lap at our back door and tomorrow we'll continue the journey west.

Wish I had one of these at home...:-)
