Rain and cool as end of March nears in Rio Grande Valley
With many leaving the park there have been many meals eaten together, whether at homes or restaurants. We had a good meal of seafood at Pelican Station with several neighbors Sunday. As the shirt at left says: Big people are harder to kidnap, eat up.
We got our trailer out of storage last week and have it parked just outside our home, moving things over as we get a chance. Plan on leaving Sunday morning the 30th. Has been raining the last two days here, hope can dry up enough between Thursday and Saturday so I can drive around the trailer onto the dirt and back it out onto the street.
Last Friday - the 21st - was Winter Texan Appreciation Day in Progreso, Mexico. Huge crowd. Here we are walking over the Rio Grande River on the International Bridge.
Many businesses were set up to serve snacks and drinks
Some of the people walking the 5 or 6 blocks that were closed to vehicles and open to vendors and pedestrians.
Need a ride?
We watched these dancers for several minutes.
Couple of guys painted silver posing and moving. Signs at there feet suggested donating a dollar to photograph.
Lots of vendors
Some of the entertainers who had been on one of the 4 stages.
One of the neighbors - Frank & Judy Parker - sold their unit and it was moved from the park. Here it is being pulled past our place.
Rocks and flagstones were to be cleaned up from Frank & Judy's site.
We helped serve ice cream Sunday evening.
Last evening we went to the Am Vets club for spaghetti dinner. Shown at right - Lynn & Phyllis Miles and Harold and LaRoahda Neher.
On opposite side of table, from left, are Butch and Dorothy Giesking and Marti & Carl Pingleton. Marti & Carl are flying to St. Louis Tuesday. He is progressing with after-effects of stroke, but will get into therapy routine at home.
Remaining 2'x6's and 2'x4's put on wall temporarily. Since this is open space, this may prevent anyone from walking off with them before I use them to continue the wall on the west side, south end.
Many things put away in the storage area. A few more and we will be ready to head north for the summer.
More later, sometime, Lynn
