Keep Movin On....

I have the GPS out again and am working with it again to see if I can justify the money spent on it again. We went to McAllen the other day and I took it with me just for fun. While waiting on an appointment I programmed it for our return trip. There is nothing like setting it up for failure when you are in familiar territory and know how it is messing up. I had programmed it for the town of Donna. We live on the edge of the city limits east of Donna so I knew we were going to pass our turn...the one programmed into it and we did. The GPS had us going clear to the next town to turn around. I told Butch that if we had been in an unfamiliar area we would now be having an argument over the darn thing. It simply cannot be trusted. I view it as a very expensive toy nothing more. The screen is too small and too dark too. Now before I paid big bucks for this tiny little thing I had used the one I have with the computer. The screen is bigger and it works much better. The downside here is it is bulky and I have to find a place to set it where I can keep it from falling and still see it. I am going back to this method on our trip out of the valley. Butch likes to know the elevation as we travel along. Like I said, it is a toy.

Apple Pie!!

Yesterday we went to Harlingen to visit with Marlene and Bernard. Marlene cooked us a scrumptious roast beef dinner with apple pie for dessert. Then we enjoyed an afternoon of cribbage and the guys were too, too lucky.

There are some great pictures here of the handsome boy but that last one might find it's way around the Internet. Just think of the captions that could be added! Look below for one that comes to mind.
