It was a busy week last week but only cause we made it busy. We headed to So Padre Island on Tues. We were invited to go with Larry and Phyllis. They had been before and knew a great place to eat. The restaurant was called Dirty Al's and it was terrific. We had a short wait but it was worth it. We drove around the island but the wind was high and sand blowing everywhere so we headed back toward Mission. We stopped at an rv park in Brownsville to visit with a couple that we'd met at Seven Oaks. We hung around about an hr but then had to get home. Lady was waiting for supper.
Wed and Thur we spent getting stuff we needed for our lot improvements. We had to get border brick and trees. the brick took some running around cause one store didn't seem to have enough but we found what we needed and we have those bricks in place waiting now on the rock. It was ordered today and should be here some time this week. The trees we're planted on Wed and they are doing good. I don't have a green thumb so if they died it wouldn't surprise me.
On Friday we went to Pepe's with Larry and Phyllis and Gary. We'd heard it's a must see and it was. I wouldn't recommend going if you're hungry and need a quick meal. (don't get me wrong the food was good but it took a long time to get it) If you have the afternoon free and want to hang out with friends and listen to music or dance..have a beer it's the place to go..you know me I don't drink but I do like listening to music and watching people dance. It was something fun to do. Saturday we decided to grill out so we called George and Wilma to see if they were free and they were so they came over. We grilled burgers and had potato salad and baked beans. We visited a while and they headed back to their park. The closer it gets to March all of us will be heading to other locations and we're looking forward to getting together later in the summer or again back here next winter.

Time sure flys doesn't it. Now to update you. We decided to buy a lot here in South Texas since we plan to spend the winters here. We'd been looking around and found one we really liked for the price. On Jan 29th we left 7 oaks and heading to the new place. I did enjoy our time at 7 oaks. The people was the friendiest I've ever seen and there was so much to do to stay busy. We spent last week getting set up and making decisions on the patio and landscaping etc. On Thurs we had girls day out. Four of us heading out to shop. we had a blast. After shopping we found a Chinese restaurant and the food was really good.
The weekend was busy, they usually are. Saturday we grilled out and Larry and Phyllis came over. We made plans to play cards on Sunday. We had breakfast plans with George and Wilma on Sunday morning. The four of us have figured out that Sundays are not good days to eat out, everyone in town eats out on Sundays. (Ha) This week we have a couple of things we're going to try to do but nothing definate yet. Right now the guys are pouring the concrete for the patio. We bought a shed for storage and that needs to be painted (where's Bob when I need him). I think we're going to paint it later this week. Well I guess that's my updates.
