Feb 18/2019 Weather good for travel, sunny about 60 sunny low 34..... next day was crap. Misty rain all day, gray and cold. The high was 46, low of 35. Furnace on all day. We travelled from Fort Stockton to Fredericksburg (Hill Country) to a new RV park called
The Vineyards of Fredericksburg RV Resort
It's a big park with long pull thrus, all new facilities and a nice view of the hilly area. We are only 2 miles outside of Fredericksburg which is a beautiful historic German town.
About 9 pm we could hear someone in the site next to us; no one was there before that. We could see a fellow with a huge flashlight walking around and around his coach. We could hear him opening and closing the basement doors. We were snoopy and watching out our window and thinking "what's with this guy". So next morning coffee in hand Billy went outside and oh yes something was up. This area is prolific with wildlife, especially deer. Oh yes, you guessed it. The guy hit a deer! Brand new coach, first time out with it. He was coming from Dallas, hit alot of traffic and got behind schedule and did not get here in Fredericksburg till way after dark. Apparently about 30 miles from here he hit a deer and it went right under the coach. He is so lucky - could have been much worse. The deer in Hill Country are small compared to back home..... in the north the deer are big! Billy compares the Texas deer to the size of a Great Dane dog. Same accident with a northern deer and he would not be driving this.
