Dispatch from Marshal Moose,  Deputy, Sheriff, Outlaw Cook & Driver Dave

Cadillac, excuse me, Marshal Moose is unavailable today something about a need to hide under the covers and hum the themes to Gunsmoke and the Magnificent Seven. 

Our day started with an issue - all our battery lights etc went out. A call to an RV repair in the direction we were heading got us an appointment. While they were investigating, Cindy and I explored the Aransas NWR and were able to see at least two maybe three Whooping Cranes (new bird) but at a long distance and a Couch’s Kingbird another new bird that followed yesterdays Crested Caracara which was bird number 400. Plus a lot more in this interesting part of the world. It is super flat like it was ironed into place and the deep dark fields stretched to the horizon sometimes on both sides of the road. 

The trailer problem was a breaker that I did not know existed. So I got a $40 lesson on Oliver Operations. But we were fixed and traveled to Padre Island National Seashore and scored the last campsite on the Gulf. The sun came out in full and the day ended brilliantly. Spectacularly beautiful and $7 a night. Padre Island is NP number 309. All the numbers are climbing today. Possibly the Marshal will recover in time for tomorrow’s adventure.
