Saturday, January 5, 2008 (DAY 9) We joined our new friends for breakfast in Weslaco; a good restaurant but nothing to write home about. Visiting with the Canadian folks, however, was a treat, as we continue to learn about Canada. It seems that most of the Canadians down here have houses in Canada, a cottage on a Canadian lake, an RV, and a place down here as well. After returning from breakfast, I washed Dunn Gone—a laborious process that took two hours—and she was dirty from the trip down through rain and road debris. Kay went shopping, and didn’t return home until 3:30 PM, a lengthy shopping trip for her. I exercised the generator, turning the air conditioner on for the day, and began working on this journal, considering I had not begun writing anything at all. After a late lunch, I dropped the 5 books by the library, and picked up 4 more. Kay returned from her shopping trip, we walked our one hour, Kay practiced a song for church, we played shuffleboard (and I got beat like a drum), and we settled in for the evening.
