Mexico

Today we went to Nuevo Progreso, to Jessica's Place, to celebrate G.W.'s upcoming birthday. On his actual birthday, December 7, he and David will be on their way to a cruise of the Hawaiian Islands. G.W. has never been to Hawaii, and David was there in 1969, so they'll have lots to discover. We were glad that Bob and Pat were able to join us. Pat had her chemo port removed this morning (yay!), and the process turned out to be quicker and easier than they had expected.

Pat and Bob, Steve, Lee, G.W., David, Judy, Jan, and Hardy.

Lee couldn't resist joining line dancers for Elvira

After drinks and munchies at Jessica's, we went to Old Town Restaurant for lunch. G.W. recommended the taco salad, so nearly everyone ordered that. The kitchen ran out of taco shell bowls, so some of us ended up with tostadas instead. Ken ordered chile relleno.

Lots of us went on to Ruben's for pedicures, eyebrow waxing, and hair cuts. Ken had his head shaved, finally joining Steve and Hardy and some of our other friends--as well as his son, Jeff. We all thought it looked really handsome, but it might take a while for him to adjust to his new look, and to the breeze on his head.

Pat, Jan, and Steve enjoy pedicures and foot massages.

The selection of nail colors is labeled "finger paints."

 Handsome dude!

On the way home, we stopped in Donna to visit Venture. Here's the floor of the bedroom slide that was replaced. We were happy to hear that all the repairs should be done by Friday, so we'll be able to pick it up and move in to Bentsen Palm Village only one day late.


Jeff called to let us know he got a new motorcycle. He was so excited that he wanted to make sure we checked out the photo he emailed.

We went to Joe Saltel's C-1 dance tonight and had lots of fun--even when we messed up. He calls some really original choreography and keeps us thinking as well as moving. We finally got to dance with Roy and Phyllis, two of our favorite cut up characters! After the dance we went to the DQ and ate fudgesicles.
