Can't believe it is the 19th already. I guess keeping busy really makes the time fly. Yesterday we went to an Iowa potluck for people here in the park. Really nice, six- 8 foot tables and lots and lots of food. They were giving door prizes for different things, you know, oldest.......came the furthest...........well when they came to most grandkids, we thought we had a prize. I told them, 13 and no one else spoke up..........wow, were going to get something. No such luck.............the old guy (82 years young) sitting next to Roger took it. Someone asked him how many he had.............he said he wasn't sure. They asked him if it was more the 13...................he couldn't remember...................so they gave it to him. Guess that's the way it goes. He has been coming to this park a long time and we are new. It wouldn't of been so bad, but he had already gotten a prize for coming the furthest. Oh well, you win some and you loose some.
Computer club was this morning and I think there must of been about 40 or 50 people there. They always have a beginners class first then, the advanced. I go for both..........not that I feel like I am a beginner, but I always learn something new, and I can help some of the others. After club today, everyone took off to go to "Peter Piper Pizza"..........Not great pizza but the fellowship was good.
We have to take a day and head back to Mexico...........Roger wants to get his teeth checked and fixed, so one of these days we will be heading out to do that. The other trip we want to do is go to South Padre Island. It is about an hours drive from here, and we want to go before all the spring breaks start and it fills up with collage students. I will be sure to take camera with me so I can get more pictures in my albums.
The line dancing is coming along good. I am learning a lot and I think I will be ready for some new dances before long. The problem is there are new people arriving every day and every time they get someone new, it is start at the beginning again. It is good review, if you need it, but I think I am getting most of it. We are doing "Waltz Across Texas"............."Ti-Na's Waltz" .............."Country Boy".........."Magic Moments"........."This Little Light of Mine" ............
"The Twist".............Ten Step Polka...................and "Cotton Eye Joe". The big problem is remembering which steps go with which song. As a matter of fact, we have T-shirts that say......
"I know this dance....................now how does it start" I even went shopping on Saturday and got myself some new tennis shoes and some shoes I can wear that will move across the floor, the tennis shoes are not great for that.
We have been watching the news and all the cold weather everyone up North is getting, what can I say but we are sure glad we are here and not there. So with that said.............Stay warm ............Drive safe ..............and.....................Happy Trails
