2014 HALL OF FAME PARADE

Wednesday, August 6 - Saturday, found Marsha and Angie attending the Hall of Fame Parade. This is actually one of the largest parades in the country. They enjoyed the morning. Paul and Rick stayed home to do a little “5th wheel job” which you'll read about in a future blog.

There were bands.

Marsha said it was the best Hall of Fame parade she has seen in awhile.

Saturday night was “off to the races” without leaving home. We had nine family and friends over to gather around the kitchen table and play the horse racing game that the gang made (Actually, we made 49 sets.) several years ago down in the Rio Grande Valley over the winter. That was a fun night enjoyed by all.

After church Sunday, Angie and Rick headed toward Chicago to spend several days with other “Winter Texan” friends. We had a nice visit and will seem them in October when we spend several weeks in Mission, TX.

Thanks for stopping by. Hope to see y’all back real soon. Have a great day!
