This should make all of you feel really good. We are having a cold spell and it is only 47 degrees! Had to dig out the heavy coats this morning.
We have heard of a place south of Mission that we plan to visit. It is called Europa or Aropa, not sure which. In this place they have bales of clothes. Yes, bales! They open them and you can salvage all you want for a penny a pound. I guess some of the quality stuff is as much as 3 or 4 cents a pound. Now this sounds so weird to me.
I plan to take pictures.
Kitti Toomire told me she gathered up a bunch of tee shirts for rags but after looking them over decided they were too good for rags and gave them to her kids. Her bill was 40 cents. This place I have to see!
Yesterday we went to Brownsville. Had to get to Sam’s Club and load up on meat. Saw 4 border patrol cars on the trip and a guy standing in a cabbage field talking on a cell phone. If you look around you can see the darndest things.
