San Antonio; King William Historical District

We really enjoyed walking through the King William district the last time that we were in San Antonio. So, returning to the city this was a must do enjoyable walk through a beautiful and historic neighborhood. Just south of downtown, this area is filled with stately old homes built in Greek revival, Victorian and Italianate architecture. It ranks right up there with Beacon Hill in Boston, the French Quarter in New Orleans and Georgetown in Washington D.C. We’ve now seen all four!

Flight To Indy To See The Moms

Gotta see the moms! We wanted to work in a weeklong trip back to Indiana to see our moms before taking off on our spring/summer/fall plans. Finally decided to extend our stay here at Llano Grande Resort by a couple of weeks. This is a very safe and secure park to leave our rolling home for a week. So, we booked our flights and a rental car and were off to the Great Up North on Tuesday March 19th!

But, it was my birthday and we wanted to go have lunch. So, I thought of what we could do here locally. There are a few shooting ranges, a movie theater, tons of shopping, and a small museum in the next door town of Weslaco. So off we went…

Llano Grande Events – Mercedes Texas

In this blog, I’ll review some of the larger events held here at the RV park/resort since we arrived in mid-December. It has been a busy, but very relaxing time since we arrived – almost two months ago!

I’m not sure what has happened to time since I retired. It has accelerated like a 900 HP Ferrari! I retired just over a year and eight months ago. It seems like yesterday, although we have seen and done many things in this time. Maybe I need to go back to work again to slow things back done. No, scratch that idea, the workplace frowns on our 4pm happy hours.
