Sat Feb 13


2/13/10 Great breakfast... of course bacon, hash browns and coffee. We did go up to the community center at 8 am for coffee and donuts (and update on park activities). Last night at Wal-Mart we found another niche market for the pigs... Hogs heads for $16 each. Now you know where to get them for hour next barbecue. After the donuts we worked on cleaning the deck and siding. About noon we left for Progreso, Mexico. Hurray for Karmen to help us get there. It's about an hour to get there. We decided to park on the US side and walk across the International Bridge. Boy, were we glad we did. We passed a lot of cars waiting to get into Mexico and walking back to our car we passed a lot of cars waiting to get out of Mexico. Denny thought knew what it would be like, but it was a lot more crowded and congested than he had imagined. No big purchases, just Mexican peanuts (Japones) and vanilla. We ate at Garcia's. Cloth napkins and table clothes, pretty dishes, glasses. Then they came with chips and salsa ... and pickled jalapeno peppers. That's when Denny's eyes really got happy. Great meal. After we got back to B'ville, we shoppe at Burlington Coats Factory...no luck. And Wall-Mart again...very lucky at intersection ... Thank you ,Lord, for protection. We thought about walking to C&C Wings, but chose to stay home and watch a Red book movie. Hot tub again. HURRAY!!
