We finally made it to Aransas Pass. Our longtime friends allowed us to park in their driveway/yard (our RV was too long for just the driveway). We had a great time personally catching up with the changes in our families: How our children grew and morphed into adults. How and when did that happen! Venus and Jim Mills were "adopted" aunt and uncle to our kids as we to their's. We came to the Island (Port Aransas) to look around and have breakfast with some other friends. Juan's is so popular, we saw about 6 people we had not expected.
Later, as we drive around, everywhere we go, we still see people we knew way back when we lived here. The Island, she is a changing. Everywhere we look, new businesses are springing up, new buildings are being built, and new houses all over the place. Most of the new houses are being built for rental houses at $250.00 a night!
As we drive around, we all say, the Island is not our Island anymore. I wouldn't want little kids to be set free as we did just a few years ago. The growth is just AWFUL! Of course the beach is still there.
