There is an RV park near I-20, it was $12 more than a Passport America (50% discount) park.
I looked at the maps on Google and saw that the discount park was 20 miles north of the highway, and I would have to backtrack to the highway in the morning.
The cost savings for the discount park would be gone with 40 miles of extra driving, so I decided to stay at the park closer to the highway.
If I was going to stay for more than one night, I'm sure I would have considered the discount park.
I'm wondering if anyone does this type of cost comparison, what are your criteria for finding a place to stay for just one night? Or for longer stays?

Tall Pines RV Park was nice, I had a nice corner site, with a swing and paved patio with a table and chairs, and it was warm enough to be outside for awhile before sunset. I would have liked to go to the gardens of the American Rose Society, but they were closed for the winter.
Thursday morning on my way to the RV park in Texas, I stopped in Nacogdoches, TX (don't ask me to pronounce it). They advertise that they are the oldest town in Texas. I walked around the small downtown area for awhile and stopped at the Dragonfly Garden Center and Gift Shop. I was tempted to buy a small plant for the RV. I didn't because I was afraid my cat would eat it and get sick. I was hoping to find a small dragonfly to put in the RV window, but they only had ones that were large, glass and too delicate for RV living.
Walking around the town was a good diversion from driving. They have old-fashioned brick streets in town. I stopped in several resale and antique shops. I purchased a few small gifts for the holidays. I prefer shopping in small towns like this instead of the large malls.
