Dentist

Wednesday Jim had an appointment with a dentist in Mexico. But it wasn't until later in the day so I cleaned the bedroom. That needed to be done as I couldn't remember the last time it had a thorough cleaning. Oh, I dust regularly and keep it tidy but I vacuumed and got all the nooks and crannies clean. It's a small room so it didn't take long.

It takes about an hour to travel from our RV resort to the border. We park on this side and walk over. The Rio Grande isn't very wide at this point but it sure is murkier than what we saw in Creed, Colorado! There it was crystal clear.

Jim had quite a wait before he got in to see the Dentist. Come to find out there had been a power failure and everything was running late. Even the traffic was backed up in both directions. Once he was done we walked over the bridge and headed home.

No shopping or looking. We did call Ed and Marilyn to see if they were free to see us. Alas they were busy so we made plans to see them Monday when we have to return to Mexico for another dental visit.

I'm so pleased to have so many readers! According to the map folks from around the world are reading about our travels and our 'exciting' days here in Mission. :) Every now and then click on an ad.....we're supposed to get paid but only if someone clicks on an ad!

Thursday Jim put the screen on our back window. It sure cuts the glare and blocks some heat. I did some laundry and some ironing. After Jim did some other work outside he came in, showered and got ready for Spanish class. While he was gone I read my book and walked Boo. The weather was perfect for sitting outside.

Friday we made plans to attend the RV show in Mercedes. Before we left I stripped the bed and started washing the sheets. Fred and Carol went with us and our First stop was lunch at BJ's. I had soup and salad, the guys had sliders and Carol had bruschetta. No drinking....just sodas!

The RV show wasn't very big but we did get a good look at the Doubletree Suites, they had three models and all three had the bedroom door where our pantry is. We all decided that was a dumb place for it as when you travel you don't have access to the loo! The vendors were ok and Jim did find some tape that's been on his wish list forever. Carol bought a watch. We picked up some brochures for the Texas coast.

It was a hot afternoon and by the time we we finished looking at all the rigs we decided we needed some cool libations. We stopped at Chili's for margaritas and nachos. Good way to end the afternoon.

Once home I fed Boo and we settled in for a relaxing evening at home.
