It’s the grand canyon of the Texas, in the panhandle. Our first visit here was in 1984 when we and our little boys were traveling with their Aunt Lou and Uncle Bill. We stayed in one of the Mesquite campsites and did some hiking out from there. Then in June 2014 the two of us spent a night in one of the Sagebrush campsites and went to see a performance of the musical Texas! 
This time we’re in Hackberry on Site 14 and we’ve stayed two nights. We’ve had time to visit the interpretve center, the trading post, various overlooks, and some hiking trails. We enjoyed a lunch at a remote picnic table with a view. And we’ve just been able to slow down a bit and relax. 
The fun of the Hackberry campground has been the wildlife. Routinely we’ve had deer and turkey wandering through. This morning we watched a roadrunner chasing something in the bushes then hopping around on another camper’s truck pecking at windows and mirrors. The sounds of that were like those we had heard from inside the T@B earlier in the morning! Guess we had been visited by Roadrunner!
Cozumel & Grand Cayman
Aboard the Norwegian Jewel we’ve made stops in Cozumel, Mexico and Georgetown, Grand Cayman to explore beyond our previous experiences here. Soon we’ll be making our way to ports we’ve not yet explored in the Southern Caribbean.
