Monday afternoon after Butch’s golf day we went to Sam’s Club in Brownsville and I spent my gift money from the great people at Senior Haven on some two-way radios. There has been more than one occasion when they would have been handy to have so now we have them!
Tuesday we went to a luncheon in Weslaco for Greene County Iowa residents and friends. Cass County has a gathering every week but for us it conflicts with biking and golf. Greene County has theirs only once per season. There is so much to do here it becomes a problem trying to decide what to do and what to pass on.
Wednesday the weather was good to go for the bikers. They do go very slow and it gets me to itching to go fast. Maybe when we get back to Iowa I can hit the trails and fly! We do plan to go to Georgia and see Rich and family and I know they have a bike/walking trail right behind their house….Hmmm.
Today the wind is blowing 10-25 mph so no golfing or biking. There is no point in frustrating ourselves by adding wind to either of those pursuits. So…we cleaned house which was long overdue and sorely needed.
I became reacquainted with a free translator website this afternoon. Buenas tardes! ;-) It is bueno way to learn a phrase or two. Check it out.

Finally summer like weather has returned. We have had two perfect days in a row with 75 degrees and no wind and the forecast looks wonderful.
Last Saturday was a bit on the cool side so we along with the Bill Brookers and the Shipley’s went to Progreso (Mexico) to have some nachos at Garcia’s- at least that was my goal. We had a good time knocking around. When it came time to leave we had to deal with the longest line ever to get back to the good ol’ USA. It didn’t seem to take long though.
Sunday we went to Marlene and Bernard’s place in Harlingen for a feast. Excelente! It was another beautiful day although on the cool side too.
