Sept. 9 - Monday

Happy Birthday to Dan, Heidi & Suellen!
Packed up to head east today.  Started out on Hwy 290, north at Hempsted on # 6, east on #105 at Navasota to Conroe.  Then back on # 105 to our destination, Cut-n-Shoot, TX.  (Really)  We stayed at the Country Place RV Park.
Before Conroe we had stopped for gas in Montgomery.  While Gary was at the pump, there were bugs flying all over.  He got back in and told me they were black, box elder type bugs that were flying two and three together.  When we arrived at the RV park, the bugs were everywhere.  When I checked in at the office, I asked about them.  They told me they are love bugs and they are present usually at Easter time and now.  They don't bite, they are just a nuisance.  We asked if they were only alive one day like the May flies at home.  They said no, they are around a week or more unless there is a hard rain.  But they are attracted most to white clothing.  Guess I will stay away from that!

We got set up then went in to Conroe for supper and found the Red Brick Tavern.   Good food and service.  Gary wanted seafood, so he had the Crawfish Carbonerra.

Love bugs
