Dear Family and Friends,
Greetings from the Rio Grande Valley and Mission, Texas. We are into our second week in this most southern part of Texas. We are socked into a weather pattern that is rainy and will be for the coming week. Part of the challenge of RVing is dealing with that kind of weather. We are thankful that we are not shoveling snow, so there will be no complaining on our part.
Since working out is so important to us, we were able to sneak in a few short bike rides and workouts in the small facility located at the resort. They have several treadmills, stationery bikes and an elliptical machine. In addition, I have discovered Zumba which is done on Tuesday and Thursday mornings at the community center. Zumba is an aerobic workout that is set to salsa music and involves many dance steps combined with arm work. It is so much fun, but it does take practice.
I have mentioned that this resort is very active with lots of classes and social hours. Roger and I went to a microwave cooking class and learned how to take advantage of the versatility of our microwave/convection oven instead of using it for a warmer. Roger attended a genealogy class and we both hit Margarita Wednesday.
We went to see "Iron Lady," starring Meryl Streep. We were living in England when Margaret Thatcher was elected Prime Minister.
I apologize for this brief blog, but with rainy weather, we were RV bound this week. It is a good thing that we love our Tour.
The sun is out this Saturday morning and we are headed out for a bike ride with a new friend from the resort. We are planning a trip to Padre Island on Monday, so please check back with us next Saturday. Once again, thank you for reading our blog.
I can't wait to see pictures from Padre Island. Jeff and I vacationed there once while he was living in Texas. I loved it.
