Thurs 1/2/14

Well happy new year everyone. It is a new year and I pray I make the most of this one.  I never end the year happy with myself and what I accomplished or how I acted so I will start a new year and try again.
New Year's Eve day we were home sick.  I was getting better but Leroy was sick with a sinus infection.  Thanks Jeff.  His bugs he gave us for Xmas manifested themselves in different ways on us.  In the evening we tried driving around but there wasn't much happening so we went back home.  We were going to walk down to the rive walk and watch the fireworks but it was cold and we were both sick so we watched the fireworks from the house.  It was all around us and it was pretty spectacular.  They had a party here but we didn't think we should be around people so we stayed home.  Guess it was quite nice.
New Year's Day we both felt better so we went down to the river walk and walked around, we went to the Alamo( really special to me as I have been an old west fan for all my life and have recently done some reading on it lately so it was great to me). Don't think Leroy enjoyed it quite as much.
We went up in the tower of the Americas and we had Mexican dinner on the river walk, stayed late enough to enjoy the lights and then took the bus back home.  We were bushed when we got home.
Today our last day here we went downtown, looking mainly for a quilt store we didn't find and then we took the dogs down the river walk.  We had lunch and the dogs were such mannerly animals on the patio and on the walk.  I was very proud.
Let's see, we decided the texans drive like crazy people with no courtesy at all.   Especially when you are driving the motorhomes.    Today downtown Leroy finally let me drive, the car , but he never lets me drive and I drive that straight stick way better than him, so I drove us down and back with no problems, and no gear grinding.
Tomorrow we head out towards corpus Christie and the padre islands.  Will update this then.  Prayers for our safety and my prayers for your good health and happy days.
