Big Bend National Park is one of our tourist destinations for this year's trip. Rather than take busy Interstate 10 west and then drop down to the Park, we decided to travel old US Route 90 west across Texas. Del Rio is on Highway 90 and we found this very pleasant RV park nearby:
Broke Mill is located about five miles west of town. It is clean, uncluttered, has good cable TV, and also has a strong wireless internet signal. (Note the windmill behind the sign)
All the sites are level and they allow RV owners to wash their vehicles here. That perk is rather unusual down in this dry country.
There are no tall trees for shade, but the best feature of the park may be all the healthy green grass. The grass is at all the campsites, and sprinklers come out of the ground at night for irrigation. The green grass helps make this one of the best RV parks we has seen in Texas. We bought a week's stay here to be in a good spot to watch all the Bowl and NFL games going on this weekend.

We hope you did not get "snowed in" up in Frederric. Last night the temp went down to 50 degrees which is the coldest weather we have seen in Texas. Stay warm.
DeleteUnfortunately I will have to root for Big Blue because my team is Green and staying home this year! Even though I live in the Sunshine state I will still be hoping for the Michiganders in Ann Arbor! Hope you guys have a safe and blessed New Year!! Casey
ReplyDeleteCasey, Thank you for your comment. Yes, big Green did not fare so well this year in football. Big Blue got some questionable calls against OSU in their final game. Near Del Rio is Laughlin Air force Base, probably named for one of your relatives!
