Busy, busy, busy……….

It’s been a while since I updated this blog with any news of our travel adventures, but since we are still here in Hondo, TX there have been no travel adventures……..sorry!

But that does not mean we have not been busy, in fact some days  I have trouble remembering all the commitments that I made for my time. But such is the life of a retiree in a very busy RV park.

On the 6th of this month we attended a Spaghetti Dinner at D’Hanis High School along with most everyone else in the park. It is an annual scholarship fund raiser .

Tuesday  the 9th I organized a class on card-making and we made Valentines for our “sweethearts”.

The next Friday the 12th was the annual Bean and Cornbread Dinner at a church in Sabinal, TX, also attended by most of the residents of our park. The beans and cornbread were good but the desserts were out of this world.

We had a huge Valentine’s Dinner Party the  next night, Saturday the 13th,  for which  I helped with the decor and took photos for the park’s website, check it out at http://lonestarcorral.com , click on photos. We were also entertained with a hilarious “Not So Newly Wed Game”. Some of these folks have been married  for 50 years and still don’t know anything about each other, which of course made for a lot of laughs and a good time.

In addition to the special events there are the usual Tuesday night dinners at Pizza Hut or Dairy Queen and  Thursday morning breakfasts at Bill and Rosa’s Cantina with the gang from the park. And there are the Sunday Ice Cream Socials too. This coming Saturday there is a Baked Potato Supper and White Elephant Auction. As you can see we do not lack for food or activities.

Bill has been helping with various projects around the park, such as putting up the new entry sign and any project that requires an extra hand.

So as you can see we do not lack for something to do even though we are not on the road. But we are making our travel plans as we will be heading north about the middle of April.

So stay tuned……..
