Amistad NRA - Del Rio, TX

Short walk from our campsite to Amistad Resevoir
With a fairly early start on Mother’s Day, we got to San Antonio’s Riverwalk at about 11:00.  We sorta found a parking space, that we might never be able to get out of, if somebody doesn’t park nicely.  After about thirty seconds, we decided this was a stop for another day (probably without the RV).  Had lunch at the Castroville Regional Park.  I walked the dog, while Deb walked her Fitbit. Then Deb talked with both our sons.


Strawberry Pitaya Cactus
Amistad Recreational Area is a manmade lake that spans the US Mexico border.  We are up on a ridge, overlooking the lake, among all sorts of cactus and other succulents.  We had our choice of campsites because we are the only ones here except for occasional visits by the Border Patrol and the Feds.  We had our first little rain followed by buffeting winds that kept waking us up all night, but then again, we were sort of sleeping with one eye open anyway.
