This WWII memorial is in Gainsville, TX at a Texas welcome center. It honors the 103 Infantry Division which trained at Camp Howze which was located at this location. The unit left from New York for France in October 1944. There were engaged in 34 battles before the end of WWII.
Yesterday we drove to Gene Autry, OK to visit the Gene Autry Museum of Oklahoma. It was interesting, lots of Gene singing through the museum, movie posters and pictures up the ying yang, no admission charge just donations, & surprisingly for a museum sharing an old school building with the post office in the middle of nowhere it had several folks visiting it. It's listed as the best & largest "B" cowboy movie museum.
Today we watched it rain (yea!) and cool down. In the afternoon we drove to Gainsville for lunch one more time at Chicken Express, some shopping at Wal-Mart (not our favorite store) and fueling up as they had a good price on diesel, $3.75/gallon. In the evening we washed the truck that got dirty on today's drive!
In April 2007 we had sold our home in Michigan and moved into our new fifth wheel trailer to start our adventure of full timing and exploring in our RV. We started our blog so family and friends can track us and see what we are up to. You can double clink any picture to enlarge it.
