We played golf yesterday at The Palms. I played 9 then drove home while Butch stayed and played another 9. I played with Lucy and Arlene. Butch played with the guys. Arlene was not having a good day. She said she should have stayed home and baked Christmas cookies. I have never before heard that on the golf course!
Butch’s sister, Marlene and her husband Bernard will be getting to their place in Harlingen this weekend. It will be good to see them. They have their Christmas with kids and grandkids on Thanksgiving weekend and then venture south. Last year they stopped in a Kansas casino and won $2000. That Brooker blood is lucky, I tell you! They stop to see relatives on the way down here. This year they almost waited too long. They snuck out of Iowa between storms.
I have learned to make working links in this blog now so when I refer you to a website you should be able to click on it within the blog and go directly to the website. One of the things we are thinking of doing while here is to tour King Ranch. You can visit the same website I did to find out about it.
