About one hour away from our destination, we got a phone call from the RV Park asking when we thought we would be arriving. They were closing early and would leave us an envelope with our campsite information and we could see them on Monday to settle up because they were also closed on Sunday. No big deal; this has happened before. When we arrived, we were a little surprised to find out our campsite was “next to the barn” and we had no sewer connection. This was going to be my laundry location! There is nothing to do but set up and wait for Monday morning.
Something interesting about this park is that it is also an alpaca ranch and our campsite was right next to their pasture.
There were also two large dogs in the area with the alpacas and it was fascinating to see how the dogs appeared to be guarding the alpaca while acting like one of them. They sleep together and run and play together but if humans come close to the fence, they bark like crazy.
After church right in Sanger (Texas has lots of Church of Christ churches) we were directed to a restaurant one block away called Babe’s.

Last night we saw lots of people waiting to get in so we felt like it was going to be good. We had to wait about 10 minutes to get a table and we were escorted to an old kitchen table that didn’t match anything else in the dining room (actually nothing in the dining room matched anything else). It was dark and said to Jim he was going to have to read the menu to me because I left my phone with my flashlight app in the truck.

The waitress arrived quickly and we asked for menus. She said “I guess you’ve never been here before.” “We have 5 meats to choose from and you can share if you like because they are big.” “They all come with a house salad, and all the vegetables you can eat and biscuits.” We chose smoked chicken (a half of a chicken) and the rest of the food never stopped coming. Their menu was carbs on steroids with homemade biscuits, house salad with sweet (sugar) vinaigrette dressing, fresh made mashed potatoes (lots of milk and butter) and gravy, corn, and something that started off healthy, green beans, but fixed to taste good and destroy vitamin content.

The food was excellent but very filling and not what we would usually eat, but we ate it until it hurt. The best part was the bill was $25.00 for all that and two iced teas. Unbelievable! We went straight back to the RV and promptly went into a food induced comma until our bodies recovered. No dinner tonight.

Did Jim hurt himself eating there. Change of plans. What’s a laundry day? Just turn inside out and carry on, like new
