R & R Week

Sorry everyone that I have not kept this up. Lois & I haven't done too much in the last week. We went to a Outlet Mall and a couple Jam session. We also took a trip over to Padre Island with a couple of friends we met from Canada (Ron & Fran), great people. While we where there it was foggy very windy. We stop at a coffee shop to try an wait out the fog. They charged us $1.99 a cup of coffee plus tax. Tax down here is 8.25 on everything. Needless to say we won't go back. Stop at a Turtle rescue place. It is a hospital for injured Turtles. These turtles where hit by boats or attack by sharks. We also went over to a restaurant that everyone says to stop an eat there. It is call Dirty Al's and I see why they call it Dirty Al's because everyone that works there has a T-shirt with X-rated saying on them. The food was excellent, would go back again and again. After spending much of the day there we decided to head back to the camp ground by the way of Brownsville. Not what we expected to see.

Nothing Day

Bill & Judy left today (Sunday) to go to Corpus Christi to meet up with a couple of friends before they head out. Lois & I went to the flea market to get some fruit and vegtables. She fix up microwave pickles after we watch the race. Looks we are going to go to Peppy's on the River for lunch (Monday). I think Ron & Fran are going to. They are a couple we meet from Canada.

Luncheons

Lois & I went to a couple of luncheons the first was with Bill & Judye to the HH over in McAllen. The other was at Pharr to the Good Sams of Michigan. We mingle with the group for a while and we ate. Found out that a friend we met at Ionia MI ralley had a Kidney removed because of cancer. They should be down here sometime next week if things go ok. Other than helping Bill put up a center support have not done to much.

Valley Girl and her Bow

Here is something I thought I would never see in my life time. The Wal Mart queen is now a Valley Girl with boots and all.

Went to the flea market with Bill & Judye to get some fruit and other STUFF. While there we were walking and to my amazement there stood a couple of people from Tri-Lakes campground. It was Jim & Norma Flanders, they just arrive in the valley with some other friends from Florida. Its so happens they are staying just across the express way from us.

Well its Thursday we went with Bill & Judye to Benson State Park in Mission TX. What a beautiful day we had. We walk about 5 miles in this park looking at different types of Birds and animals. The weather was great in the lows 80's and no wind. There are cars allow in this park you either walk or ride the tram. The tram would take you around and drop you off or pick you up thru out the park.
After being there all day stop at a couple of cg to look at them. Went to camping world but did not buy any STUFF. After all this we went to get some Tamales and came back to cg to eat them.
