#Travel2022 Spring Break at Jellystonr

Spring Break typically begins our travel season, although we still have 9 or so weeks of work to go before summer time.  As an educator family, this is what we save for and plan for all year.

Typically we head for Gatlinburg for SB, bilit this year we kept it closer to home.   Jellystone Whispering Pines in Tyler, Texas is nearby but also a genuine get-away from the hustle and bustle of home.  

We arrived on Sunday and set up camp.  We stayed in #60.  Brandon had #53 and Dad had #55.  It was a good combination of sites. 
 
Upon arrival and while setting up Brandon came over and asked for help; he had water coming out of the side of the camper.  As it was Sunday he could not reach Gibbs so they dry camped.  On Monday Gibbs predicted busted pump from the winter freeze.  He and I dove in ourselves and found it to be a broken PVC check valve.  $3 at Lowe's fixed it.

Each evening was visiting and hanging out by the fire.  We did dodge the bullet when a Monday night storm rolled through. Rain but not much else.

Walking, visiting and Blackstone cooking was the order of the day.   Sunday to Wednesday wasn't long enough, however.  We will need to come back soon!

Jamaica Beach, Day 4

Today started slow, as vacation days should.  No real plans other than a bit of shopping and a nap. Quick breakfast and then helped Brandon....
