South Texas

We enjoyed our visit to the Rio Grande Valley with Julie’s sister Cindy and brother-in-law Terry. We got our house washed and waxed for $145, a bargain and less than half the price we paid to have it done in Southern California.


Friday night we went to a pool party at the RV resort. We enjoyed meeting other residents of the resort that are living there year round.


On Saturday we went out to dinner with Terry & Cindy and their friends Don & Claudia. Then we went to the McAllen Events Center to see the Broadway musical “Dirty Dancing”.



The six of us went to Progreso, Mexico on Sunday for lunch. It’s easy to park on the U.S. side of the border and simply walk across the bridge over the Rio Grande river to Progreso. It’s a small border town with restaurants, gift shops, many dentist offices, and pharmacies. After lunch we all went and got pedicures at a nail salon for $12. Men and women were in the salon getting manicures and pedicures.


We drove back to San Antonio on Monday and were lucky enough to get a campsite in the Lackland AFB FamCamp. We had a nice shady site and it is so convenient to see Julie’s mom at Blue Skies of Texas, only 3 miles away and the price was right too at only $20/night.


Yesterday we enjoyed visiting and dinner with old friends Buzz, Ellen and Peggy out at Blue Skies of Texas. We hadn’t seen them all in almost a year.

We left San Antonio this morning and are headed to Tucson to spend a couple of weeks.
