85º here in La Feria, TX as I start this at 5:00 pm Sunday. Bright sunshine and a bit muggy out.
Many of us went out to eat after church at the Rec Hall at noon. In fact, most of the people who were at church went out - the crowd has dwindled with people heading north.
We ate at
Stefanos Brooklyn Pizza (Click for Website) which is a full Italian restaurant with lots of good food. Phyllis & I shared a Philly Steak Stromboli and each had a salad. Superb food.
It was also the last service by the Minister Jim Paydon and his wife Linda (she is seated at the end of the table and he is to the left) They winter in a park in Harlingen and are leaving for Minnesota this Wednesday.
Couple of photos of what work I have completed on the interior walls with my miniature logs.
And, even got the switched light up over the entry doors!
Yesterday (Saturday) we and neighbors Harold and LaRhoda Neher went over to McAllen to listen to the Magic Valley Men of A-Chord chorus for their last concert of the season. It was the entertainment for the "End of the Season" meal for the Dream Valley RV Park.
They start practice next November and start performing next January. I hope to be performing with them by that time. Must memorize all the music -- which is somewhat daunting to me. Have CD's and sheet music to work on over the summer as well.
Yesterday spent much of the morning cleaning out gutter on my carport where it is under the tree. I had put up screening several weeks ago over the guttering area and now, after the silicone had set up I pulled the screws on the edge and lifted it, drilling bigger holes to get into the gutter area and cleaned out several years of leaves, dirt, etc. Now with the screening over it hope won't have that situation again.
Friday afternoon we went to a Croquet game and pot-luck lunch at the west end of the park on the south side. Quite a few gathered and I played my first game ever of Croquet and we got to visit with a lot of people.
Thursday was our last of the season Bean Bag Baseball night. Had small turn out with only 5 on one team and 6 on another, but was a good evening.
Pat Sumner, from Kansas, finished with the grease packing of the trailer wheels and got them back on.
Safe travels! Keep us in mind as you make plans to attend Butch's 90th! Will try and come and stay over. Be fun to spend some time with you!
