Monday March 30th

Katie and I played golf yesterday. We thought we might play 9 holes, but after nine we still wanted to play so we played another 9. We pretty well had the course to ourselves the second 9 which was really nice. We came home, had supper, and then went for a walk. Steve and Janet were on their deck, so they invited us for a drink. I had a rum and coke which was very enjoyable. They told us their experience...

Sunday March 29th

Katie and I were dog sitting today. Al and Bonnie went to San Antonio to watch the Valero Open. Al's dog "Katie" is no trouble to look after at all, just like my "Katie". We went to the driving range, and Katie just stayed close to us, we were the only ones on the range at the time so their was no danger. We went shopping for some groceries, so we put her back in Al's place while we were gone, then...

Saturday March 28th

Today is the surprise party for Erika. Katie and I have no idea how Livario and the kids are going to pull it off. We went to the Pharmacy for 4PM. Lenny phoned Karelly to come and get us. We were surprised when the van appeared on the main street and Edith who is 16 or 17 was driving and Karelly was...

Friday March 27th

Katie and I decided we would go and hit some golf balls in the afternoon at Palmview. We like the range better there. Katie was back in form and hitting really great shots, me not so much. My driver is fine but struggling a bit with my irons. I am hitting them on the heel pretty consistently, so will have to find a way to try and hit them more on the sweet spot. After that we decided to go out for...

Thursday March 26th

Katie and I went to meet Sister Maureen at her residence around 2:15, so we could go to Mexico. Just before we left there was one heck of a storm which started east of us. Apparently they had some hail of 3 inches. We had huge winds and rain all of a sudden, which lasted about ten minutes, and then...

Wednesday March 25th

Katie and I went shoppin, as Katie had to get some supplied to make Taco Salad, as we were invited to Remi and Dana's. Dana had a whole mess of perogies and wieners she wanted to get rid of before they go home. Katie made the salad and off we went. They had a good crowd of people, all of which we knew, with the exception of one couple who we met for the first time. As usual it was lots of fun, and...

Tuesday March 24th

Mea Culpa...fell down on my job of writing the blog... Katie and I went to the driving range and hit balls before playing golf in the afternoon. It was slow because the Canada vs US Rio Grande Valley version of the Ryder cup was being played. Both Katie and I didn't play all that well, not sure why. It was a very hot day, and the game seemed long. We came home and just relaxed, as we were hot and...

Monday March 23rd

Katie and I went to the Factory Outlet Stores at Mercedes, about 25 minutes from here. It was a nice day, and our first stop was the Bass store where every year for a few years, we have found some real bargains. Not this year. We only found bargains at Old Navy, I got a really nice shirt for 8 bucks, and some shorts. The other bargains were at the Izod store...it is leaving the mall in may and they...

Sunday March 22nd

Yikes, the time is flying by...not good! Beautiful day here today, the sun is out and no threat of rain. Katie and I went to Mexico for noon to see the kids. Livario picked us up at the Pharmacy with Livy. I wanted to check out a couple of things to do with their internet, so we stopped at a store...

Friday March 20th

This is a non rain day for a change...just overcast. I put up another motion detector light in the patio. That will give us two solar powered led's at night which get brighter with motion. Much better than pure black. Of course if someone is intent on breaking into the shed or mobile home...they will. Even though Katie and I knew it was going to pour rain on Saturday, we decided to wash the car...

Thursday March 19th

Katie and I did a couple of errands in the morning and then we went to the driving range at Palmview because Tierra Del Sol Range was closed. Both Katie and I were hitting the ball well. We went to HEB after that to get a few groceries. Al and Bonnie were going to pick us up for the Fun and Sun Golf Banquet at the Plantation complex which is just down the road. They played golf first, but it is...

Wednesday March 18th

It was raining in the morning, so we cancelled our Tee time for the afternoon. We went to a couple of places we wanted to go. We had our umbrellas so we thought we would go to the Don Wes Flea Market, but it was around 1:30 so we decided to stop at Gonzalez burgers which is close by. We usually only go there once a year, because it is always super busy, and Katie and I don't eat much meat. We make...

Tuesday March 17th

We decided to go to Mexico with Sister Maureen, as we had some clothes for Vickey, and gifts for Michelle who is sponsored by my brother and sister in law. We met Ken and Vicky, friends from previous years, and Dena, another friend from past years who help Sister Maureen with her work. It was good...

Monday March 16th

Because we couldn't visit the kids on Saturday because Karelly was sick, we decided to go today and go earlier than normal at 11AM. The kids were off school today. Erika dropped the kids off at the pharmacy where Lenny works. We took the girls to a salon where Lenny's niece works, to get their nails...
