Coleman Park, Brownfield, TX - Oct 13
This was another free Texas city park offering water & electricity. The RV sites were rather ugly, but Coleman Park was quite nice, and since the weather was still in the low 90s, we dropped a few bucks into the donation box at the cg. No other free cgs had a donation box or we would have contributed to them also. This was truly a stop just picked out because it was halfway to our destination of Carlsbad, NM. 
All we did here was get gas and drive down Main Street to see what was here -- NOT MUCH! About 50 miles further south we found a much nicer park (probably not free but maybe not very expensive) which was a Gaines County RV park located at a golf course. Other than Palo Duro Canyon and Lake Meredith, much of the panhandle of Texas seemed completely & boringly FLAT! Nothing to break the monotony save a few pecan groves and fields of cotton and something we think is either sorghum or milo. Amusingly, we passed near a small town named Levelland -- not hard to see where they got that name! It also has a free city park!# posted by Doug and Willie @ 1:28 PM
