Monday November 28th



Welcome back to your Winter home in the beautiful Rio Grande Valley!

Whether the weather is fine
Or whether the weather is not
Whether the weather is cold
Or whether the weather is hot
We'll whether the weather
Whatever the weather
Whether we like it or not!

And it is "cold" this morning!!! Lows in the 30's. All week will be on the cool side.
But you know a cold spell will make our grapefruit so much sweeter! So a grower told us when we purchased fruit at their orchard a while back.

A little run down of last weeks news....

This Monday there wasn't a whole lot discussed, nothing mentioned about whether we can BYOB at different events. Talk about the ice machine, someone tampering with the timer on the gate, a couple other things. The "Committee" thinks we shouldn't pay for the newspaper all year around......geesh......the cost is a hundred and some for the year.
