As I mentioned on Face Book, I think I have found the place I would like to spend the rest of my life. At least the Winter & Summer, not so much hurricane season. We are at a nice little park, nestled in the oak trees, in Rockport about 20 miles north of Corpus Christi. It is absolutely to die for. The RV park is about 2 blocks from Cantano Bay.
The weather has been mostly fantastic. Morning coastal fog but in the 70's & 80's during the day and mid 50's to low 60's at night. Every where you go are bays, bridges and ocean views. We were only supposed to be here for 4 nights but extended our stay for 2 more. I just don't want to leave. Seriously thinking about spending the entire Winter here next year.
We've done the tourist thing, gone to visit Padre Island and Mustang Island, visited the Maritime Museum and Aquarium. Here's a few pic's.

The ferry ride from Mustang Island to Port Aransas. A really short ride, maybe 500 yards at the most, but it saves you a 30 mile drive around to Corpus Christi. This is the main shipping channel and they can't build a bridge over it so they have half a dozen small ferries taking vehicles back and forth.
