Dec. 15th

We had our annual caroling and golf cart parade last night, the carolers sounded awesome! Leading the parade was John Geer on his motorcycle followed by Brock in his Van with speakers on the back and then the carolers with mikes and the sound was really cool! Santa (Paul Sprague) looked really neat and when going by the Motel several little kids came running to the fence and put their little arms out to Santa, it was real cute. then afterwards to the hall for snacks.

Driving around the park looking at all the decorated mobiles, park models and r.v.s very lovely decorations, the nativity scene in front of the park office is so pretty!

Poor "Frosty" melted away

Good Day

The weather this week has been kind of crappy...some gloomy days and this morning starting off with light rain.

 I got a call yesterday from a former resident, she is 96 years old and still going strong. She did have an accident and has to have some rehab, her name is Dorothy Young. Her husbands name was Gordon, he passed away while they were still living here in the park...could be close to 10 years ago. she lives in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin.
Saw this in my friend Barb's blog from Magnolia Park:

Husband Operating System

Dear Tech Support,

Last year I upgraded from Boyfriend to Husband and noticed a distinct slowdown in overall system performance, particularly in the Flower and Jewelry applications, which operated flawlessly under Boyfriend. In addition, Husband uninstalled many other valuable programs, such as Romance and Personal Attention and then installed undesirable programs such as Hockey, Football, Golf and HBO/Game of Thrones. Conversation no longer runs, and any endeavour to upload Housecleaning simply crashes the system. I’ve tried running Nagging to fix these problems, but to no avail. What can I do?

Signed, Desperate

Dear Desperate,

First keep in mind, Boyfriend is an Entertainment Package, while Husband is an Operating System. Please enter the command: ‘http: I Thought You Loved Me.html’ and try to download Tears; do not forget to install the Guilt update. If that application works as designed, Husband should then automatically run the applications Jewelry and Flowers, but remember – over-use of the above application can cause Husband to default to Grumpy Silence, Garage or Beer. Beer is a particularly bad program that will download the Snoring Loudly Beta. Whatever you do, DO NOT install Mother-in-law (it runs a destructive virus in the background that will eventually seize control of all your system resources). Also, do not attempt to reinstall the Boyfriend program. These are unsupported applications and will crash Husband.

In summary, Husband is a great system, but it does have limited memory, is somewhat erratic, and cannot learn new applications quickly. It also tends to work better running one task at a time. You might consider installing additional software to improve memory and performance. We recommend Steak, Pulled Pork and Hot Lingerie.

Good Luck, Tech Support

Monday Dec.1st

Isn't this a great picture of the Farleys?  and to think how far Anita has come since last year!! Our favorite neighbors!! Yes it's 10:00 a.m. and no coats!!!!

We have had a week of beautiful weather, and today is supposed to be 80. But a cold front tommarrow and highs of 60. but we can take some of that...we are so greatful for our wonderful warm winters down here. It's been awfully cold up North. Our neighbors, the Krafts, from Iowa, just got here and said in Iowa, it's been very cold and windy.

I don't often recommend a good restaurant but this one is super good! It's called El Rancho Grande, it's located across the parking lot from Big Lots! right here in Weslaco, I hate to travel to McAllen or Harlingen to eat especially at the rush hour times. Their breakfast is absolutely wonderful and the decor is lovely, the best part was the service is fast and effecient.so clean and the acoustics are many times better than Tex-Mex, sorry but they get about a 3 rating from me. El Rancho Grande gets a 10, everyone who took our advice said I was right.
