Jim,
Several spots in Texas along your way might be
- Rockport, where you can take in the Aransas National Wildlife Refuge,
and take a boat from Rockport to see the Whooping Cranes in their winter
home. There is a state park there (Goose Island), and probably a lot of RV
parks. Might be a little crowded with winter Texans though, but then, so
will be McAllen.
- Goliad (Remember the Alamo!, Remember Goliad!) Also a State Park
there.
- San Antonio, of course, depending on the highway you choose to take.
The Alamo and the River Walk are there, but it is a big city.
- Houston (goes without saying).
- Corpus Christi.
I have a lot of Texas links on my site. You might want to browse them
and see what else of interest you can find.
-Tom
