Settling in to #312

Our Dentist office in Progreso is in the orange building on
the right.  This is adjacent to the bridge over to Progreso.
82º and clear here in La Feria, TX at 4:45 pm Tuesday.  Wind came up last few days and lowered the temperature as well as dispersing the mosquitoes. 


This morning we drove to Progreso, Mexico for some dental work.  Ended up spending most of the morning.  Stopped by both Sam's Club and Costco over in Pharr, TX on the way back.

Christmas stuff out at Sam's Club in Pharr, TX

Got west window awning up.

Raised south window awning.













Got pickup unloaded except for the trikes






Got one wheel on!
Got both front wheels and seat installed.










First bike assembled; mirrors, lights, carrying rack all installed.





Spent much of Monday assembling the two trikes from the many small pieces and the frames that were under all the stuff packed in the back of the pickup.

I should add here that when driving to Progreso this morning I was startled to look at the inside rear-view mirror and see clear out the back!!  Had been almost a month since started packing the back of the pickup so full could not see out of it.

Last night we visited a bit with Lee and Helen Miles

Due to Lee's health problems, they stayed here in
Kenwood all summer, not returning to Illinois
Photo of Don & Doris Ferguson and family posted on Facebook yesterday.

Another recent Facebook photo - my niece
Jessica Miles, is the short lady at the xylophone. 
Got most of the things settled in here - still finding stuff in the shop/Texas room and figuring out where to put back all the insulation that we installed on the Texas Room west windows this March.

GROANER’S CORNER:((  Two young men were out in the woods on a camping trip, when the came upon this great trout brook. They stayed there all day, enjoying the fishing, which was super.  At the end of the day, knowing that they would be graduating from college soon, they vowed that they would meet, in twenty years, at the same place and renew the experience.
Twenty years later, they met and traveled to a spot near where they had been years before. They walked into the woods and before long came upon a brook. One of the men said to the other, "This is the place!".  The other replied, "No, it's not!".  The first man said, "Yes, I do recognize the clover growing on the bank on the other side.
To which the other man replied, "Silly, you can't tell a brook by it's clover."

Who's there?
Alaska!
Alaska who?
"Alaska to open the door again."
