There isn't much news...................the weather down here has been great. We have even turned on the air condition the past two days. We did make it back to the flea market and did some more shopping. Or should I say, Roger did some more shopping. He has found some socks there that he really likes. They are diabetic socks..............so we are loading up on them. He even told me to get rid of his other socks..........................so they must feel pretty good on his feet. Then he decided to get lawn decorations so we came home with a covered wagon and a cowboy boot.

He has also been putting a border around the fruit trees with wood chips. Next he wants to lay back paper down and do yard in rock. The grass down here is not like the grass up north..........it doesn't look the same or feel the same. Our yard is mostly shaded............and not much but weed grass grows there. I don't say much as it gives Roger something to do.............and he likes puttering. The back part of yard is all dirt and when the wind blows............it really gets dusty all over. The rock will help that out. Don't forget to click on photo to view all of the pictures.
This coming Wed. we are taking a one day trip to Monetary, Mexico. Last winter when we were down here, there was a fashion show at Sleepy Valley...........I wasn't going to go, but the lady across the street asked me to go with her. During that show, they had door prizes and low and behold.............I WON. You heard me right. I won and it was a free one day trip to Mexico. I was going to go by myself as we didn't want to leave Keota.......it would of been too long. Now that Keota is no longer with us......Roger is going also. Just had to buy him a ticket. The bus leaves at 7 am and gets back at 9pm so it is going to be one long day. I am making note to have camera ready and batteries charged before the trip. Looking forward to taking this trip.
We were given some free tickets to the McAllen Symphonic Band concert this past week. One of the gals that I help in computer club called one night and said her hubby was sick so they couldn't go and wanted to know if we wanted the tickets. It was really good. I must say...........it is the first time we have been gone during the night time hours..........Roger doesn't like to go out at night. Thanks.....Shirley and Bob for the tickets.
We upgraded our DirectTV to include a DVR and it sure is nice to record shows with. I dropped all the movie and sports package we were getting and only added the Starz package of movies. Roger likes to watch his movies...........so I have to keep him happy.
Once again............Happy Valentines Day
