Anyway, I know it doesn’t mean anything, but I do like hearing from her. She reached out to let me know all is well and to have a fun trip. Just thanked her and left it at that.
js, this is fool's gold. You are in the friend zone. If you want to be friends with her, then congratulations, you are there. If you want to be her H, then you shouldn't settle for these breadcrumbs.
We advise most LBSs in situations similar to yours to not be overly responsive.
When she texts you, informational texts do not get a response. "All is well, have a fun trip!" That doesn't require a response or even an acknowledgement.
If she texts you a question, answer her but on your time. (IE not always right away.) Answer her in as few words as possible. Yes or no questions get yes or no answers.
If she asks you "Why does it take you so long to respond." A simple, "I am busy." Is all that you need to respond with.
Your sitch is one of the ones that you need to be practicing the LRT. That means DO NOT initiate contact with her. When she initiates contact, you adhere to the rules above.
Or you can ignore all of this and settle for being her friend.
