End of week - February is here!

68 degrees with 10 mph wind out of north east here in La Feria, Texas - full overcast.

Old Board of Activities on the Laundry Building

I took down the old Board(s) and painted the white area underneath the
closest color to the building I could find in their workshop.

Today I put up new 36" x 48" Dry Erase Board, a 32" x 48" Cork board, and
9" strips off the old board on top.  Assuming the office will get lettering for those headers.

Park Manager came by and took pictures while I was working.

They are getting ready to pull out John Metzger's (from Mound City, MO) house
which is only a couple doors from us.

Photo above was taken in late December.
Photo at left shows after I had cut some of the cactus off (as well as the strong wind that day which blew the "hoer" down.

Decided the Cactus was really detracting from the flower bushes Phyllis had there, so cut it down.  Took seven trips with my trike to haul off all the "leaves".

 That stump in the center is all that is left now.  I had cut back the growth several times over the years and the trunk of this now resembles a tree trunk.  Though, it is rather soft, I did the chopping with a regular dirt shovel, both on the cactus clumps and the trunk itself.

Tuesday morning we picked up Patty Steckelberg (from Shenandoah, IA) at the airport here in Harlingen.  She will be with us a month, including our trip starting this weekend on a cruise out of Galveston, Texas.

 Wednesday evening we partook of the Pot-Luck supper at the Rec Hall.  Mighty good eating these RV Park ladies put on.

Patty is hiding behind her drink cup.

 After Pot-Luck we went to neighbors Bob & Bobbi Raab (from Minnesota) for pegs & Jokers.

 Last evening I went to Bean Bag Baseball -- mostly to support neighbor Harold Neher who is unable to stand alone when he "bats" throws the Bean-Bag.

I had been getting several Home Runes - and Harold had been getting several
outs --- so he reach behind us and put on my hat to see if it would bring luck--it didn't

Is 62 degrees and rain as I type this now at 10:15 pm Friday.  Went out to Fish/shrimp buffet

 with Harold and LaRhoda Neher for supper and then have been at Bill & Darlene Winslow's place tonight playing Concentration cards.
