Finally a break in the weather! Today was a beautiful day. 61 was the high temperature but with an absence of breeze and full sunshine, it seemed much warmer.
It happened to be Costco Thursday so we buzzed over to Pharr. It isn't far.😉
We came back to lots of activities and folks gathered on street corners visiting. We have all been out of touch for days.

What are the Colonias?
I decided to educate myself about the Colonias of South Texas. It is indeed a sad story and even sadder when the temps are this low. I have heard about them on the news for many years but never had a firm idea of what they were all about until now.
