It was overcast this morning and we had some light rain.. We had breakfast at The Bakery with The HOC and then when we got back, Ron and Eileen and us went to Corpus Christi shopping. We had coupons for Bed Bath and Beyond, Hobby Lobby and Joann Fabrics. We ate a lunch at Jason's Deli. We then went to Sam's Club and got alot of stuff for our Heartland's Meet and Greet next week.
When we got back home, Dan defrosted our refrigerator which was needed.. It was a busy day.
February 12th Tuesday
In the 50's this morning and rain..
On the way to Port Aransas the sun came out. It sure was nice to see the sun and have the warmth of the sun.
A few of us met for dinner at Beaches before the Mardi Gras Parade in Port Aransas. We had a long wait on the ferry so we were the last ones there for dinner, but we finished dinner before the parade started.
When we got back to Aransas Pass, Ron's truck automatically went towards Dairy Queen for dessert.

February 15th Friday
Cool this morning, Dan, Ron and Gene went fishing on The North Jetty. Later in the morning, Eileen and I went to the Beach on the North Jetty for a few hours. The first time I had been there, and I was so disappointed that beach was so full of plastic bottles and debris that was blown in from the Gulf. I had heard that there was debris, but not until you see it for yourself did it hit home. The winds picked up and it was windy, Good thing I brought a sweatshirt. Eileen and I both picked up 2 bags of plastic and brought them back to the mainland.

We didn't even make a dent, but we did our share. When we got back home, we took our dogs for a walk and then rested until we went out to Pepito's for dinner. Met Gene and Linda there.
Got back home and put legs up and relaxed for the rest of the evening.

This morning it was 48 degrees this morning. Going to Craft show and then to Market days. It turned out to be a wonderful day. Bought a Boa at the craft show and seen an awesome trike motorcycle.. Then we went to Rockport to Market days. Lots of Vendors and I bought a Desert Rose plant, A bag of Kettle Corn, and a bottle of Texas Hot Sauce.. Then we went to Alice Faye's for lunch.. We just love those fish sandwiches.. I can not eat all that bread, so I just had fish and Onion Rings. Came home and took Mr. Herbie out for a walk and crashed for awhile.... Had Ron and Eileen over for dinner tonight. Dan made Chix legs on grill and baked an apple pie. We discussed what when we are going to go back to Mexico and when we are going to go to San Antonio.. 6 more weeks and we are heading back north.
February 17th Sunday
It was 51 degrees this morning and it is suppose to be a nice and sunny day. We went to HEB to get groceries that is needed for The Meet and Greet (Heartland Owners Club) this coming Weds.
We were suppose to go to the Beach and sit in the sun for awhile later, and that did not happen. It would of been nice to get out and enjoy the day.
We have a busy week ahead of us, and will be glad when this is over with. Just wish the weather would co-operate. Soon we will have to think about packing up and heading NORTH..
