March is here!

83º here in La Feria, TX at 2:30 pm Thursday with the wind continuing to blow - about 15 mph right now.  It has blown 24 hours a day for some time now.  Would think we would get used to it!

Going over some literature on the cruise ship Carnival Vista that we go with Gold Wing Express and the music group (only 339 days away) and discovered Guy Fieri has a hamburger joint on it!


Well, you probably would never guess this, but it is now 7:45 am Friday and I got sidetracked yesterday.  Is 56º and to be a nice day. Had windows open in the house yesterday and overnight.  Phyllis has full day with the Appreciation Day today and I am to be down to the Rec Hall at 9:00 am to start making pop corn to have available at the Radio Controlled Race Car track at 10:00 am for when they watch the guys do their car racing.

Couple pictures I took of a load of big bales coming on the Interstate as I was coming back from Harlingen yesterday noon.



Went down to the Mexican Cafe on the west edge of Harlingen yesterday at 10:00 am with the Spanish Class and we had brunch.  Did as much conversing as possible in Spanish with the waitresses and each other.  Had 27 people, most of them had been attending class, some brought spouses who have not been coming to class and a couple who used to live in the park and she speaks fluent Spanish also came.






This is the second, of the year, group to tour the back lots of Gladys Porter
Zoo in Brownsville this week.  We did not go this time.
Went to Meet & Greet yesterday afternoon, but guess I did not take any pictures.  Did not have a program, just a gal from a financial planner place and guy from Walgreens gave short presentation and then we ate and visited.

GROANER’S CORNER:((  Bob had this problem of getting up late in the morning and was always late for work.  After a few weeks of this, his boss was mad and threatened to fire him if he didn't do something about it.
So Bob went to his doctor, who gave him a pill and told him to take it before he went to bed. He got a great night's sleep and actually beat the alarm in the morning. After a leisurely breakfast, he cheerfully drove to work.  "Boss," he said, "The pill my doctor prescribed actually worked!"  "That's all fine," said the boss, "But where were you yesterday?"

------------------------------
The father of five children had won a toy Lion at a raffle. He called his kids together to ask which one should have the present.  "Who is the most obedient?" he asked. "Who never talks back to Mother? Who does everything she says?"  Five small voices answered in union. "Okay, Dad. you get to keep the Lion."
====================
Big day with the Appreciation Day all day here and then I leave by 1:45 pm to head west to prepare for and then be in the concert tonight in Pharr, TX.

Later, Lynn
