Welcome to our Winter Home, in Bentsen Grove RV Resort in Mission, TX.

Yesterday we arrived at our winter home, at Benson Grove RV Resort . We pulled in about 12:30 p.m. and were welcomed in the office and introduced to Bob who showed us where our mailboxes were and lead us to our site, W8.  He helped my Bob back into our site on the first try.  I was glad to have Bob take over my navigating duties.

Bob hooked up and I set up in the motorhome and then we took Pralines for a walk.  On our way out of the office when we registered, we had run into Kathy and she had invited us to stop by their 5th Wheel when we got settled. (Kathy and Dave Whittier are the friends who had recommended this place to us.)  We easily found their site and after hugs and a short conversation, they continued on our walk with Pralines and turned it into a tour of the park.  We were thankful for the tour.  The park is really large, 850 lots, with 2 swimming pools, 2 shuffleboard courts, many buildings for table tennis, pickle ball, rock and wood labs, more and more.  We also got a two page activity sheet to choose which activities we might be interested in joining.  After our walk, we headed back to the motorhome and at about 5:00 p.m. Kathy and David had invited us for dinner, so we again headed to their site.

Kathy, a birder like Bob, invited him to join her for a walk in the morning.  I had already decided that I was going to join the water aerobics class in the indoor pool, directly across from our site.

We are snow birds and very happy about it.

Our Praline flag is out and we are settled in here.

We feel very welcomed and have enjoyed our first two days here. We are already glad we decided to take the Whittier's recommendation and give Mission, Texas a try.  I forgot to say that it has been perfect weather.  In the 80's during the day and down to 60's at night for good sleeping.
