El Campo











Right now Jesse is welding and his jobs take him all over Texas. They've been in El Campo for awhile, so we decided to go for a visit. They come here a lot, so I figured it was our turn to head out there. When they are on the road they live in a camper, but it's big so there was enough room for us too. The welders create a community for themselves when they're away from family and friends, so each night we all cooked and ate together. It was a lot of fun and everyone was super friendly. El Campo is only an hour from the beach so we spent one day there. Texas beaches aren't fabulous on a good day and we'd just returned from a week at Wrightsville Beach so it wasn't great, but it was nice to be outside in the sun and allowed Rudy to run around all day. We drove up and noticed that you could park on the beach and all of the cars were crowded together on one side. We decided to create a little space and started off in the other direction. Apparently, you can't park on the beach without getting stuck until the tractor packs the sand ;)
