Snowbirds heading back to the RVG yet?
Just wondering if the winter Texans are arriving in the RVG yet. November seems to be the month we begin to see the arrivals. For me I'll come in mid to late December for three months. Hope the weath...

Is the ferry big enough for a 42' 5th wheel?
It can easily handle multiple RV's and does all the time. Nice little free boat ride also, keep an eye out for dolphins when you get near the island harbor.
Also make sure you got plenty of fuel before heading down the Bolivar Peninsula. With my Class A I never worried about it with that big fuel tank, but now that I jumped ship to a 5'ver/truck I will.
I'll be using that ferry in a month or so going south. Hardest part of the trip is my GPS doesn't know the new roads to get to TX35 (or TX59) after you leave the town of Surfside, TX on the way to the Valley.
That is the tricky part of the whole trip, so make sure you got it covered in your mind and/or GPS (especially with a rig that long.)

There is a Wal-Mart in Port Lavaca that is perfect to spend a night at then onto the Valley. I'm not a big Wal-Mart night type, but I will/have do/done that one after a neighbor told me about it.
Palacios has an RV park next to the shrimp boats also.
Dang, 42 foot sure is a big one. Hope, I don't steer you wrong with taking the back way down to the Valley.
