Our back patio where we spend alot of time.
OTHER SMALL NEWS: We went to Pecos last Saturday, spent the night and returned to Del Rio Sunday with the truck and car packed up very full. We hardly left room for the dogs! Visited with the neighbors and George, Peggy, Rosie & Randy came by to see us. We were invited to dinner at Debbie and Neal Thomas' house. Great food and nice to visit w/ them and Bessie and "Carl the plumber".
I'm glad to have my car again. Had it here 2 days and now it appears to need some doctorin'. A light is blinking. Got out the owners manuel and it says the transmission needs attention. Aw hell...it's only got 216,600 miles on it. PLEASE car...hang on one more year. Then we'll have the pick up truck paid off and can buy something else.
EVERYBODY in this town is getting a new roof. They look O.K. to me. Damn, those roofers are loud and busy and HOT! There was a big hail storm right before we moved here.
The Del Rio newspaper is daily and small and in English and then the same news in Spanish. I'd like to take Spanish classes.
A couple of hummingbirds have found my feeder that I just hung up. Wonder WHERE my hummers back in Pecos are finding food...at Zelma's house of course!
There are alot of fire ants here...I forgot what they are like...OW! It is 68% humidity...I forgot what that is like also.
I hope to see alot of Monarch butterflies in a couple of months moving thru here on their way to spend the winter in Mexico.
That's all the news from DEL RIO: QUEEN OF THE RIO GRANDE". |

i really like your yard already. I can tell you are getting ready to do something out there. Your little dogs are so cute.
Dear Mary,
Thanks for the latest photos and news. I dig that patio, no wonder you dog spends so much time there.
Love,
Dave
