Roswell New mexico

As we leave Texas and enter the Land Of  Enchantment. Setting our clocks to moutain time our bodies have trouble making the change. Todays scenery was full of desert dried weeds, brown straw that replace grass, rocks, sand, pebbles and lots of prickley pears catcus. ( I rememebering dating a prick he was a creep. That is another story.) Somehow in this vast land of nothing you do find an Oais.  Large home surrounded by emearld green lawns huge shade trees, you might think you are in Ireland or is it a mirage. We arrived at Town and Country RV park here in Roswell, about two'ish. Made us some tuna sandwiches and watched TV.   Took a short walk to a stop in shop for a bag of ice, and ice cream sandwich for dessert. We did exercise!! We only have a 3 to 4 hour drive tomorrow.
Maureen called us last night to tell us that Cody hit a hard solid homerun.  As he crossed homeplate he had a grin from ear to ear.  He was the team hero for the game.  Ryan has been accepted to the junior national honor society. He has decided to cut his hair. He has thick wavy hair like his mom. Being a granny I needed to do some bragging.
We are having fun with punch dub you know when you see a VW Beetle.
Just a short chat tonight, The Good Wife is coming on gotta watch it.
Be safe and XOXO to all

Texas in my rear view mirror

I'm back.  Hope you guys have not forgotten me.  It has been a long time since my last post. Let's just say Juju had writters block.
Harry and I are finally on the road. First stop Boerne, we plan to spend time with our baby girl. Lisa now lives in San Antonio so we have a lot to catch up. Our favorite thing SHOPPING and do we shop.  This weekend is Fiesta San Antonio, lots of music, river float parade, food, drinks, and wall to wall people. FUN FUN.  There is a Mexican resturant that we enjoy dinning at, they have good salsa and margaritas.They also have a great bakery just about any type of sweets you could want. 
Did I mention that Lisa has moved and now has a third floor apartment. Not to worry I have a new knee. It keeps going and going,and going I just wish I could.Yep what we do for our children. Gonna miss you Lisa Pooh!!!!!!!
Sunday we visited Hill Country Christian Church. They had a guest speaker an added bonus to our visit, with a covered dish dinner after the service. The best Happy Hour.
Being Monday morning it was time to move on.  Next stop will be Fort Stockton TX.  We did have nice driving weather. Some what cool and not having to turn AC on, saving diesel is a big plus. As we drove the highway the Texas wild flowers were abundant, Bluebonnets, Indain paint brush, yellow and white daisies. Such a spectacular sight, and as a native Texan we look forward to the spring flowers. If you get a chance take a ride to admire nature at it's best. 
I chose to cook supper the RV park has a cafe but I didn't feel like going out. Besides home cooking is always better and  I am a great cook.  Harry can take me to breakfast in the morning. Wow I sound boring. So I guess it is time for me say so long.
Be safe and I shall chat later
XXOO
