Nov. 28th Monday
36 degrees this morning at 7AM .. Dan fixed bacon and eggs this morning which was a really nice treat. Went to the post office and then to HEB for some groceries. When we go back Dan watered the grass some and we went to Happy hour. Not too much happening today,. I sure enjoy the cool weather though.
It turned out to be a nice evening and lots of stars out.
Nov. 29th Tuesday
55 degrees this morning at 7 AM and it was sunny. Our neighbors Chuck and Jackie and Dan and I went to Port A for lunch and to get some bakery. Oh I had such a taste for German Stollen...
3 of us had Reuben sandwiches and Dan ordered 2 brats and broasted potatoes. Drinks were $2.00 a piece, so a glass of ice water did us just fine. We were disappointed with our lunch. I had a piece of apple strudel that I shared with Dan and and the dough was tough. The Stollen was 16.00 and Jackie had bought a small piece that we all tried and it was blah... each piece of danish was $1.50. So all I bought was a cinnamon roll to take home and oh my it was blah!! I did like to homemade tomato soup that came with the sandwich though.
Got a message that our friend from Illinois, who is in the Valley for the winter, had told us that another friend had passed away Monday. What a shock that was.

67 degrees this morning at 6:30 AM..
It rained most of the night and off and on all day. Dan fixed breakfast again... Oh what a guy...
Our friends Arnold and Susan have a 23rd Anniversary today and we had them over for dessert. I thawed out some frozen strawberries from home and we each had a nice bowl of shortcake. Yummy.... Arnold showed me some things on my new Kindle Fire... It is sure a shame, no one sends a instruction manual with their items anymore. Everything is online.,...
Dec. 3rd Saturday
70 degrees at 6:30 AM
We had light rain early this morning. then the sun came out and it turned out to be a nice day.
This morning we picked up Susan and we went to the Palms RV for a craft sale. I bought a homemade jacket. Last year I bought a necklace set and then a few months later at another sale, I bought another one. When I got home I realized that it was the same one. I did not have her phone number, so this year I brought it along and she was more than happy to exchange it for me. Then we were on the way to Rockport/Fulton open air market and we seen all kinds of kites flying down by the marina and we stopped and watched them. Oh so many different colors, sizes and shapes..
Off to the Open Air Market, and I bought some homemade orange marmalade, and a dozen of homemade tamales. We called Arnold and he met us at Alice Fayes for lunch.. Dan, Susan and myself had such a good fish sandwich with sweet potato fries, Arnold had a salad..
Happy hour at 4 PM and then at 6:30 we went down to Conn Harbor to watch the Boats on parade all decorated up. They went up the inter-coastal to some of the other bays.
It was a long day and we came home and relaxed...
Dec 4th Sunday.
Got up early again and the temp was ??? forgot to write it down. Dan and I went to The Bakery Cafe for breakfast. Then went to HEB and bought a few things and then Dan went to customer service to buy 2 rolls of quarters. They wanted to charge him .20 a roll service fee.. WHAT HE SAID. He said no thank you, So we went to Wal-Mart and got our change for the laundry.. This society is charging for everything. Soon I see them charging to use the public bathrooms. Any way I went and did the laundry and Dan was messing around back at the trailer, talking with everyone.
I watched a few shows of NCIS and then it was time for Happy Hour. Around 4:45 PM a cold front came just that fast. Everyone headed back to their units. Around 6:30 PM we headed to Corpus Christi to see the lighting of the bridge and they had a color light show. Our neighbor Jackie went along. the bridge did have lights a few years back, and they updated the lights and added a few more light shows. It is really amazing what today's technology can do..
There were many other colors and design.. Just beautiful.....
So Long for another week....
