Jan 18, 2012 Mission TX


Man we have been busy…mostly driving around, seeing the sights, eating lots of great food, and catching up with friends!

On Wednesday we went to Harlingen and visited with Kay and Greg Sluyter, our friends that we met through Red Dale National Wagon Train.  We had a marvelous couple hours catching up and eating some fantastic bbq!  Of course we were too busy chatting to remember to take pictures!

On Thursday evening we met up with Bob & Lynda, friends whose blog we have followed several years, and last met up in Mackinaw MI about 18 months ago…they are here in Mission at Retama Village where they call their winter Texan home.  They’ve done lots of work, put together some very colorful chairs, fire pit, bar and BBQ.   I was remiss in taking pictures, but here is one Bob snuck in on his blog Smile  After chatting for a while we went to Chuy’s for a tasty dinner of very good Mexican food!  They have a very good blog if you are interested…

Today our park had a craft sale – Doris, Bill and I went up, had biscuits and gravy for breakfast and wandered around the craft and vendor show.  I got 3 new ‘scrubbies’ for doing dishes….saw a lot of neat stuff but didn’t get anything else.  Late lunch at Gatti’s pizza palace – terrific salad bar, we got Senior prices so we were totally stuffed for $14…Again, no pics…I’m really falling behind on this!
