Hot/Cold -- CHANGES

In the Rio Grande Valley of Texas - La Feria - 56 degrees at 11:00 am. 


Had been 41º earlier.  These radish plants, and some of the lettuce looked a little hard.








We went through 2 days of really
windy wind.  25-30 mph with
gusts to 45 mph out of the south.
Temperatures was in the low 80's,
finally dropping to the 70's and we
turned off the air-conditioner and had
windows open over one night.  Then,,,,,,, it
turned from the north as we were in church
Sunday and the temp dropped.  We put some of the tomatoes in out of the wind here.



This is
at our front door at
11:57 am on Saturday,
December 26th.

Note the 72% humidity
as well as the 82º temp.
This was with the really high, constant,
wind from the south.







This photo was just taken
at 10:30 am a few minutes ago,
on the front porch again.

A little difference in humidity
and temperature!






Before this change in the temperature, I finally
got the area between the front door and the entrance
to the Texas room finished with shelves, ceiling covered,
and painted.  Still have some trim to possibly
put on it.










The Three Wise Men
at Church in the Rec Hall.
(Or the 3 Amigos----3 Blind Mice---
3 Stooges----  or, you name them)








More pictures of eating. Seventeen of us
from Kenwood went to Bamboo Garden Chinese Restaurant in Weslaco, TX (a few miles to the west along Business 83).

Here is Earl Taylor, from Mankato, Minnesota and Harold and Imogene Williams from Marian, Indiana.
Don Foote (with napkin) from Topeka, KS,- his wife Lynda is hidden behind him; Butch
Giesking from Tytonka, Iowa; and, Jim Boozer from Kell, Illinois


My left ear; Sharon Taylor and Earl
Taylor from Mankato, Minnesota.


Harold and LaRhoda Neher from
Hiawatha, Kansas; Sharleen and Lynn Stivers
from Callaway, Nebraska; Butch Geisking from Tytonka, Iowa; and Jim and Livin Boozer from Kell, Illinois. 
Although I thought I had their picture, I didn't get one of Reverend Ernest and Evelyn Baker who rode with us and sat across the table from us.

Temperature had dropped and 20-25 mph winds were blowing so after this big meal it was easy to take a nap when we got back home.  Temperature was in the 50's when we went to bed and furnace was turned back on.

Not a lot planned this week.

Later, Lynn
