With some reluctance we left RGBI and headed out on the road again. We decided to take a more scenic route to South Padre Island. We drove the old #281 or "The Military Highway". At certain points along the route we could see the fence bordering USA and Mexico. We saw fields of cabbage, sugar cane and some corn.
South Padre Island: wouldn't want to live here but it was nice to visit. Riding our bikes and then walking in the sand on the beach with the cool ocean water lapping at our feet. The weather was warm, the sun was shining and just enough of a breeze to not feel too hot. We climbed the windy stairs of an old lighthouse, just for fun and the view of course.
On our way to Kingsville we had to stop for a security check point. Not a problem. Arriving in Kingsville we attempted to find a place to eat that was not fast food but that seems to be almost all that exists here, well except for some buffets joints (I dislike) so we ended up eating at the only other place we saw, Chili"s. Tim had some shrimp tacos that he liked and I had soup. Sorry Jordan but I forgot to take pictures.
Here we are once again at McD's using their Free wifi and catching up on our emails. Our overnight plans include a stay on the black top of the WalMart parking lot.
Thank you Lord for another day to enjoy your beautiful creation.
Prayer update: my sister is having surgery tomorrow.
