One beautiful day after another

I have been reminded of South Texas in a normal year as far as the weather is concerned with one beautiful day followed by another for a whole string of nice days. One of the peculiar things about South Texas weather in a normal year and yes, I do need to repeat, is that the poor weatherman is given about a 30-second slot of time to state his case and then he is done until the next time. It isn't long before the weather is once again taken for granted and rarely if ever mentioned. As a person who is used to that kind of weather on occasion, it gives me a start when we are on the bike trail and a passerby goes on and on about how wonderful the weather is this morning. It will most likely take a 3-day stretch of the icky kind to snap me out of this happy bubble I am in.

Butch and I had a full day yesterday. Butch worked on waxing the motorhome in the morning. The common comment on that is "Didn't he just do that?" and the answer is, " Yes, he did." And I worked on trivia questions for both places-the Elks and South Texas.

And then we went uptown to see Elizabeth Warren at https://www.rvp1875.com/ . It was packed to the rafters-literally. One of the surprising things to us was the amount of out of town people who were here. In fact, I would say it was mostly out of town. Iowans but out of town Iowans.

And this was followed by Butch taking a quick turn around the Hot August Nights Car show uptown on the square and beyond. There were at least 300 entries.

And then we went to Pete and Jerilynns for a party. We were supposed to be meeting their friends from Wisconsin but due to a snafu they were not arriving until today. Hey, it happens! You will be having these kinds of snafu's too. Sooner than later depending on your age. The company was great and the food was delicious. Cannot ask for much more than that!

And of course, from there we had to hurry on out to the casino for trivia. There were 8 teams and the event seems to be growing. We did alright but not in the money. Many of the questions were aimed at a different generation. As I remember it, there were 3 questions answered by Devon and Karla that we would have missed had they not been there. When you need assistance on 3 out of 20 it tells you what a sad shape it would have been without their help. We have told them to bring their friends!

So today is starting to feel like a day off!!
Leo sent me these from the car show. I know nothing about them...they are green.
