Columbus, Texas

We arrived for 4 days at the Colorado River Thousand Trails in Columbus, Texas. We were here for 2 weeks 3 years ago. We were surprised that the park was so full! There were only 2 sewer sites left when we got there. Neither would allow us to receive satellite on our auto rooftop satellite antenna. We picked site number A46 under the big oak tree and set up the portable dish.

It may have been full because the Easter weekend was coming up. Either way we really like this park. BTW, this is NOT the same Colorado River as the one that borders California. The people in Columbus are what you would expect people in a small Texas town to be like, very friendly! The deer would come out every afternoon, and the sunsets were spectacular. For my California friends, this is what GREEN Grass looks like!

We went into La Grange to go to the SuperWalmart. I read there was a gas station that had a good bbq in it. It was called the Texas One Stop. It also had a great bakery. We didn't buy any bakery goods although they did look great, but we did buy some smoked chicken breast and some brisket to go. 

Yummm!!!

On Easter our son Matthew texted us and told us that our home church New Life Community Church was going to start Live Streaming services!

We have gone to some great churches on the road, but to us, none as good as New Life! New Life was having 6 Easter services, 2 Saturday night and 4 Sunday morning. We decided to watch Streaming services Saturday night from Oxnard here in Texas and then go Sunday morning to the Columbus First Baptist Church. we appreciate that they have always made us feel welcome and part of the family!

That's it for Columbus. We are leaving on Monday and heading to Breaux Bridge, La. It is going to be our first time in Louisiana so we are looking forward to it!

God Bless and thanks for reading,

Brian and Patty
