Day 140, Saturday, March 7, 2026 - Fort Stockton RV Park, Fort Stockton, TX - 262.9 Miles, 5,070.2 Miles for the Trip.
47°F overnight, 55°F at noon while on the road, and the high for the day was 66°F.
I finished packing up the trailer by 9:00, headed to the dump station, and was out of the park by 9:20. A long drive, mostly on I 10 with a stop at a very busy Loves in Van Horn, TX ($2.89 with a $.10 member discount).
I'm in site 7, a pull through full hookup site on gravel needing 1 1/2" correction side to side and raising the tongue 1". Basically a parking lot with services - no shade or fire ring. They do have showers at both ends of the park. I didn't unhook since I don't plan on going anywhere, but I may change my mind and go out for dinner tomorrow. Here for 2 nights at $45.00 per night with a $5.00 vet discount.

I do miss the on site restaurant. Although it was nothing special, it was convenient. I also mentioned that they no longer have the most comfortable laundry room chairs I've ever found. Someone broke the last one so they are back to standard folding chairs.
By the time I got set up there wasn't much left of the day so I read for a bit in the trailer then made dinner.
Last night I finished Dana Stabenow's No Fixed Line, and started #23, Not The Ones Dead, the last in series.
Dinner was a Chef Ramsay Chicken Pot Pie. The last time I had one I cooked it in the oven & it was OK. This time I followed the microwave instructions, and I liked it better. The crust in the oven cooked one was tough. Not a lot of chicken at least compared to the Boston Market version which is my favorite, but a nice selection of vegetables.
Until Next Time -
