'Nuther week gone by

Wow! has nearly a week gone by? Lots going on. Great day today - about 62º now 6:30 pm on Saturday, but was 49º early this morning and was in the 70's this afternoon when we were at South Padre Island with Lynn & Jan Freye and Patty Steckelberg for the afternoon.

Jan is Phyllis' cousin who lives near Martel, NE, just south of Lincoln. They are in the Valley for a month. We went to Dirty Al's for an early lunch.

After finishing lunch at Dirty Al's at the south end of the island, we drove a short distance north and near the west side of the Island where the Sand Sculptures are located. Quite a few different forms.

We then went north on the Island and on the west side and watched some of the South Padre Island Kite Fest 2020. I took some video and it is on my You Tube Channel HERE.
This is several hours later and have been notified that the video violates copyright laws so is not allowed! Can't figure that out!

Multiple dancing kites

The kites were fun to watch, but the guys dancing on the end of the strings was fun, too.

All these guys were really moving!

Put in a new window in the bedroom. Found some structural damage so needed to replace some 2"x4"s.

Really old termite damage above window.

Water damage below the window.

Tuesday we did not have any of the car-pool people with us coming back from McAllen so we stopped at Doris & Lyle Winter's place for a short visit. This is their dog Josie

Oh yeah, picked Patty Steckelberg, from Shenandoah, IA up at the Harlingen airport Tuesday evening. She will be with us for most of the month of February, including the week-long cruise we take next week.
