Trial 1 -- Lake Livingston

Well, we got out of Lake Conroe on May 11th and drove to Lake Livingston. The First night we stayed at an RV Park. The second night we stayed in the Livingston State Park (See picture here of campsite). Returned home on May 13th. What did we learn? Lots. We tested a lot of navigation systems -- GPS tied to Google Earth, tied to the Trailer Life Directory Campground Navigator software, the Garmin Nu-265. Proprietary interface on Garmin proved the pain in the neck we suspected. Without that we could have linked the systems. Got around it though. Just need practice now. Chairs and table we bought worked to perfection -- functional and practical to pack away in our limited space. Clothes -- what we had worked; just need more. Had purchased nice hiking boots and clothes at REI. Need a few more cooking utensils, but did not find much of anything we did have to be dysfunctional. All in all, good short trip.
