Texoma City Park, Dumas, TX - June 10
Our last time through this area we stayed at an icky RV park in Dalhart, only to discover the next morning a city park in Dumas, about 25 miles away, with about 20 RV spaces in an asphalt lot, free for a one-night stay. They don't allow you to stay longer. This worked out great for Day 2 of "the dash". It is fine for the price, although there are loud trains every hour or two, continuing through the night. Dumas is famous mostly for being the town of the song "I'm a Ding Dong Daddy from Dumas", written in the 20s by Phil Baxter and made popular by Phil Harris on the Jack Benny Radio Show in the 40s. For more information on this song or the little town of Dumas, visit www.dumaschamber.com.# posted by Doug and Willie @ 6:33 PM
