Camping Recap - Week Eight, another bonus post / by Dave Hileman

We were again at three parks over the week, one state park, two commercial ones, unusual for us.

We spent one night at Seminole Canyon State Park, Del Rio, Texas. It was on a mesa with a good view but it was very cloudy and we had cold rain. The sites had gravel base with power and water and the table was under a shelter.

Our next night was at Marathon Motel and RV Park. The sites were on gravel but with a lot of mud seeping in because of the rain and snow, not a regular occurrence. The had full hook ups at a reasonable price and some unique features including a nice courtyard and great views. The laundry was difficult.

Finally at Study Butte, Texas, we spent four nights in the Paisano RV Park while we toured Big Bend National Park. It was very convenient to the West entrance and to the Santa Elena Canyon area, a jewel of a hike! The RV park is a step above the area with some nice touches, full serve and friendly hosts.

We are off for Fort Davis and Guadeloupe Mountains this week.
