Friday, I left work a little early so I could get to Cisco and we could start packing the rig for travel. We had originally booked to arrive on Sunday at Bluebonnet Ridge RV Resort in Terrell, but because of the cold front they was coming, we decided to head out a day sooner. Luckily, the park had room for us. We had some chores to do to narrow down some of our stuff for travel, and take some of it to the mini warehouse, as well as pick up a few things from there as well. We also took our extra propane tank, because we will need it for our colder trip weather!
This was also the first trip with a few items Santa brought early. We have a new Furrion Rear View camera on the back of the rig. Our Big Country came pre-wired for this, so it was simply plug and play. We did however decide to upgrade the antenna to a stronger one that an HOC forum member had recommended. Tony said it worked great! He could easily see what was in his blind spot on the passenger side before changing lanes! Whohoo!

A few other upgrades include a King digital antenna, keyless slam baggage doors and a Winegard Satellite for the roof. We've been getting these items the pat few weeks so he has high hopes for this Christmas break to get some things done.
We got going about 1:15, and made good time through DFW. -- but we didn't beat the front. It was already 56 and dropping, with a bitter wind blowing! We got set up as quick as possible.
Sunday was cold and somewhat drizzly, so we mostly stayed put.Tony got our propane tanks filled, and ran some errands. I headed back to the apt for work.
