fedexman Posted November 6, 2009 Report Share Posted November 6, 2009 Greetings to Class of 2007 who "adopted" us while at the Gypsy Rally in Celina, OH. We are back in Texas. Grandpa has agreed with us and is all set t move into a retirement village tomorrow. He will be in the independent living apartments. His "buy in" was very reasonable, and for his monthly fee, he can be sent to assisted living or even the med center at no additional fees, just the same monthly fee. What a relief. We have already sold his mobile home...it was sold before we even put up the sign, which is real load off our backs. Now, for the second time we have to reduce "stuff". We will stay in the Weslaco area, most likely til the end of December...Paul wants to stay thru January. UGH. We have a new puppy named Lucy who is a yorkie poo like Mack. She is 9 weeks old. I guess Paul felt he needed to make Momma happy . Now Mack has someone else to torture rather than that poor old kitty. Lucy gives as good as she gets tho! Anyone coming to the RGV please let us know...

Jay Carter Posted November 7, 2009 Report Share Posted November 7, 2009 J & L, Paul and Dee, Howie and Nora will be in Monday for a few days. They will be here at Bit-O- Heaven, where we are on Bus. 83 almost to Alamo. let's try to meet up early next week, maybe at Gonzales....I hear they have some GREAT bugers....or anwhere... Joe, most all the parks are pretty much the same. The one we are at is real nice inside the park but most of area around here and a lot of the other parks are run down. Prices are about the same. Come on down, the weather is GREAT...Mid 80s during the day, 60s at night.

jlnewby Posted November 7, 2009 Report Share Posted November 7, 2009 Hey J&L and Jay and Fay, where is the BEST rates by the week down there? Now by best I don't necessarily mean the cheapest, i like comfort. Joe & Marcia - With almost 400 parks in the RGV, you can find just about anything! If you want to PM me with a mailing address, I could send you the 2009 RGV Park book. It lists them all and indicates the amenities, address, phone and website. I think most of them post their rates on the web. The weekly rate at our park is $195 (pool, hot tub, shuffleboard, pool tables, etc.) and the one I'm working at is $130 (no pool - just a small rec hall). There're also some higher end ones here and there: we've seen Llano Grande ($180-300), Victoria Palms ($210-300), and Bentsen Palm Village ($218-277) and they're nice. Paul & Dee - I'll (try to) PM you our phone number - we'd love to meet you!

You name the place and time and we'll be there. Joe and Marsha, hope you get to the RGV while we are still there -- it would be great to catch up with you guys again.

I picked Pepe's last year and that didn't turn out so good.... Jay, what's this "Gonzales" you speak of? Joe & Marcia - Any ETA yet? Once you get past NM, there's not much to see until the valley.

Jay, what's this "Gonzales" you speak of? I wouldn't worry about it too much; we have been on the east coast since March -- and you know what that means for Mexican food. Anything in Texas has to be better. Anyway, it is the company that really matters, right? But, if you are still not picking we can make Jay and Fay choose. It just can't be us, as we have never been in the RGV before. Tonight we are in beautiful Sulphur, LA -- wonder what they produce here Norah & Howie Christmas Monkey's Excellent Adventure Blog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay Carter Posted November 8, 2009 Report Share Posted November 8, 2009 Hey John....On the RV Net forum, there is a section on the RGV...One of the things they say is a must, the bugers and onion rings at Gonzales in Weslaco. We have not had a chance to try them out yet. Jay n Fay Carter and Lulu 01 Fleetwood Expedition,DP 07 Saturn Toad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We did make it to Tucson a couple days before I thought we would so who knows when we "MIGHT" get to the RGV.

lelandschliep Posted November 8, 2009 Report Share Posted November 8, 2009 With everyone braggin' about the weather in So Tex, I feel a little bad being up here in Kansas. I've been tramping around to some COE and state lakes. I have seen such beautiful country that I really wonder if I'm still in Kansas (Honest). Tonight at Lake Shawnee next to Topeka. This is actaully a County RV park and unlike the rural/vacant lakes, I have neighbors and have had to close the curtains. Kinda feels strange. Oh, by the way, it was 78 today and is only going down to 58 tonight and it's been about that all this last week. Not too bad.
