Just imagine Willie Nelson singing and you'll know how we feel!
The truck was OK and we drove to Victoria, TX on Wednesday night and into Donna, TX Thursday arund noon. It was 90 when we arrived and windy as all get out as usual. We got set up and immediately had to get ready for the luau. Stella even made two dishes so I wouldn't have to make something so quickly.
We are at the Casa Del Sol park and today I'm going to the post office to have my picture taken outside where it says Donna, TX. I think there's a Rogers, TX too. I'll have to research that.
Our agenda today is the post office, the Santa Ana Wildlife Refuge so Jay and Stella can get their Senior Passes (I don't know if they'll want to take the tram tour or not) and then "all you can eat shrimp and catfish" with $10 pitchers of Margaritas with dancing at Pepe's on the River in Mission. It sits right on the Rio Grande and you can see the innertubes hidden in the bullrushes that the Mexicans use to float back and forth. I kid you not! Our border is so porous.
Just wanted everyone to know we are safe and sound and we're starting on the second 110,000 miles on our diesel truck. It has a new thermostat, new fan clutch, new water pump and housing and new bearing on the drive shaft much of it courtesy of Ford. Let's hope she keeps on rolling. They say diesels are good for 250,000 miles if taken care of properly so here's hoping!
