Rain Report for December 30

Here's the "official" rainfall report for Rockport 35 RV park as of the rain which ended this morning.

A Plug for Pepitos

Pat and I tried Pepitos for lunch today and found it quite satisfying.

Pepito's is the little yellow Mexican restaurant on the extreme northern edge of Aransas Pass, on the west side of Business 35.

They offer four versions of a Senior Plate Special for $4.95. We tried two of them and both were very good, and certainly adequate in quantity.

When we arrived, about 12:30, it was fairly busy—and noisy! But that sometimes adds to the ambiance, right? Before we left, most of the lunch crowd had left and it was much quieter.

The Movie "Avatar"

Have you seen it?

I'm interested in the 3D technology, but the story doesn't excite me at all.

Should I see it or not???

Mystery Digger Strikes Again!

Photo of mystery diggerEach of the last two Mondays, a "mystery digger" has attacked the water lines here at Rockport 35 RV Park. This week's event was down near the office, adjacent to the dog run.

This week's leak required a smaller "mess" but was more challenging than last week's. But the Mystery Digger, Tony's trusty John Deere, and able helpers were able to complete the task today to the point of getting the water turned back on.

There was plenty of encouragement from every passer-by, without which we might still be waterless.

Gordon's Completed Carving

Photo of Gordon with carving.You probably recall that we have some talented wood carvers here at Rockport 35 RV park.

Gordon is one of them, shown here with a completed relief carving which he worked on most of last year. He did a great job!

He credits John, professional-grade carver currently parked next to the entrance gate, with giving some suggestions for the finishing touches!
