We’ve left family in Miss. and are headed towards N.M. for the start of our summer travels. \u00a0Our first stop is Comfort, TX which is about 30 miles northwest of San Antonio. \u00a0We stopped one night in Beaumont, TX as we don’t like to travel more than about 6 hours in a day.<\/p>\n
Our plan for Comfort was to visit the Cascade Cavern<\/a> nearby and also see the Museum of the Pacific War<\/a>. \u00a0But, bad weather disrupted our plans.<\/p>\n The first night we were here a severe thunderstorm struck about 11pm. \u00a0And I mean SEVERE! \u00a0Continuous lightning and thunder close by so it was extremely loud. \u00a0And, it hailed as well, not more than 1″ but heavy and for almost an hour. \u00a0It was really loud on the roof of our 5th wheel and really scared Laddy…me too!<\/p>\n So much rain that the cavern was closed as it was flooded. \u00a0We were told to call back the next morning to see if it would be open. \u00a0No such luck as it rained the following night too.<\/p>\n We did get to see the Museum of the Pacific War in nearby Fredericksburg. \u00a0It was very interesting and had lots of information, photos, and some planes and artillery on display. Below are a few pictures that Jeff took.<\/p>\n We can’t stay longer here as we have made reservations, so the cavern will have to wait for another visit. \u00a0Oh well!<\/p>\n\n
