Trip odometer: 156 miles
Highway 99 marks the edge of Houston’s urban craziness. As soon as we passed under it today, the driving was less stressful and the scenery turned green. Hooray to be leaving Houston!
As the traffic thinned, the flat road started gently undulating as we approached the Texas Hill Country.
We arrived at the Walker Honey Farm about an hour before it closed. It was a “Harvest Host,” a network of places, like farms, that allow self-contained RVs to stay overnight in return for the guest buying things. We enjoyed a charcuterie selection for dinner and had fun choosing some honey-themed provisions from the farm’s store.
It wasn’t long before all the other shoppers and workers left and it was just us and the farm behind a locked gate. Saydee and I chatted with a few bees that we found buzzing around as we wandered around the peaceful grounds.

An electric hookup helped our air conditioner bring Arvan’s inside temperature down while parked next to plants that reminded us how hot it was.

Janet found the perfect spot for her needlepointing!

It had been just the type of “Harvest Host” experience that we had been looking for.


What a way to start a roadtrip! Praying for safe travels and lots of fun memories!
