Day 177: College Station, TX

This may have been our hottest day yet.  It never really cooled off all that much last night, and the humidity remained high.  Alea rode 38 miles to our planned campsite southwest of Navasota, TX, only to find it full.  We could have switched off and I could have ridden on to our next destination, but since it was already 93 degrees out we opted not to do so.

We searched for nearby campgrounds, and the only options were toward College Station, north of our route.  Allstays showed that the closest one to us was the least expensive of the bunch, so we went there:  University RV Park ($50, power, water, adjustable showers).  There is free cable, but our TV can't figure out how to pull the channels in.  And there is supposed to be free wi-fi, but we think we are out of range, being the next to farthest campsite from the office.  It does have a nice air conditioned laundry, so we got caught up on that.  And the air conditioned showers are some of the nicest that we've seen.

It's hot enough out that even in the shade it is too hot to be outside for very long.  So we've passed the time in the cabin by reading, playing cards, working puzzles and now and again venturing outside to give Lana a short walk.  It looks as though it may remain hot and humid through Friday, when a cool front is predicted to pass through.
