Valentines Day in South Texas.

Butch and I went to the grocery store yesterday about 4:30 on Valentines eve. That was a mistake! A mistake you say? Why would that be?  Valentines in deep South Texas compares to Christmas eve. It is a big, big deal. There are vendors on every street corner selling big baskets they have put together with stuffed toys, candies and flowers as well as all the stores selling the same. Every time we have ventured out among the locals on Valentines day we say to ourselves "never again" and then we forget!
