Atascosa RV Park - Pleasanton, Texas 45 degrees and sunny and windy to 54 degrees and mostly cloudy with the wind laying down later in the afternoon. This honkering down every three day is getting old. I know it is better then many other places in the country. At least the last one there was no freezing rain.

Atascosa RV Park - Pleasanton, Texas 33 degrees and sunny to 35 degrees and mostly cloudy. Another honker down and keep warm day although we went out for propane gas bottle refill in Pleasanton, TX. Using the twenty pound bottle extends the time between fulls of the internal propane bottle in Buster. That was the only reason to be out in the cold weather.

Atascosa RV Park - Pleasanton, Texas 52 degrees and cloudy to 56 degrees and cloudy.
The high was before two o’clock and was below forty-four before three o’clock with a steady north wind of twenty and gusts to thirty MPH.

I went out in the afternoon and winterized Busters hoses filling the water tank, disconnecting and emptying the drain hose and disconnecting closing the water compartment and turning on the small heater in there. There could be freezing rain tonight a day to just honker down. The best is we do not have to answer a driveway alarm for trucks coming or going tonight.

Well the rain came and there was freezing, I had went to bed and was asleep when I had the C-pap machine turnoff. I got up and went to find out what happened. The electric had gone off earlier and the c-pap was running off the house batteries, and the big television, dish, box, computer and four electric heaters. Needless to say the batteries were worn down quickly. This was only after eleven at night. No battery left to start the generator. I had started the gas brick heater in the late afternoon that uses no electric. I connected the car to the house batteries and ran the car at idle so there would be power for the gas furnace blower to operate.  About three thirty the power came back on to stay and after four I turned off the car and went back to bed. There were a lot of icy bridges and flyovers in the San Antonio area this morning (Friday). When I went out there was ice all over the car and Buster the steps and the ground frozen rain.

Atascosa RV Park - Pleasanton, Texas 35 degrees and mostly sunny to 74 degrees and sunny.  Feeling much better today the runny eyes are gone and the sneezing is almost non-issue. This is a one pill per day and took another today.

Today was mostly a rest day or stay out of the pollen. The television weather reported the mountain cedar tree pollen was at thirty-one thousand level today and before we left San Antonio on Friday it was under six thousand and that was before I knew I was allergic to mountain cedar tree pollen.

Atascosa RV Park - Pleasanton, Texas 43 degrees and mostly sunny to 64 degrees and sunny.

Today was another good day as I am taking the allergy pill every day probably the rest of the month or until the mountain cedar tree pollen is much lower. I am also trying to stay inside and not be out there inhaling the mountain cedar tree pollen. Buster needs a good cleaning from the drive in the rain on Friday and the dist and dirt we had at the gate.

 It was a nice easy drive down interstate thirty-five most of the way, also interstate four-ten and interstate thirty-seven. Ninety-six miles with some on FM 536 and FM 1784 all paved roads inside the park also.

Bonnie and I went into San Antonio for linner (late lunch early dinner) and on the way back stopped at H E B Pharmacy to get something for the mountain cedar tree pollen allergy. Took one right away.
