After that we decided to go out for dinner, and we went to one of our favorite restaurants "El Patio" to have the fantastic chicken strips. We were disappointed! They were not that tender and smaller. Previously you couldn't eat the whole thing, would be able to bring some home and have two or three meals of chicken salad. What a shame, we were looking forward to it.
Afterwards, seeing we were in Mission, we decided to take a drive through the first park we ever stayed in. The park is called Canyon Lake, and we stayed in a small trailer with two tip outs. It was ok, but nothing compared to what we have now. We had to get an air mattress from Wal Mart as the bed was so hard, and then we would almost bounce each other out of the small bed when it was time to get into it.
The reason it is called a lake, is because there was a natural spring which filled up a large area and turned it into a so called lake.
Wow what a difference! The lake is almost totally dried out, it was pretty before. There are all sorts of empty spots, so it looks like it is slowly on the decline. We would not want to go back there again and are thankful for what we have. Mission seems to be much busier than what we remember, and lots of traffic and hustle and bustle. We like Pharr much better.
We came home, and later on went for a nice walk.
and so ends another great day in the Valley!
more later...
