Flea Market in Texas

Dick and Phyllis are now in Weslaco, TX.  After a nice breakfast with several Leisure World residents, A friend of Dick and Phyllis - Ruby Lowderman said she was taking Phyllis Connett to church. And this she did... At the Almo Mexican Flea Market...

The preacher man has his own little shanty set up at the Flea Market. He honks the horn on his car and announces that church is about to start. AND IF YOU NOTICE THE SIGN - IT IS IN ENGLISH and he began his sermon. 

It was quite interesting to see what all you could "purchase" at this flea market. Besides the usual jewelry, clothing, fruits and vegetables, there was beautiful plants, puppies, cats, snakes, spiders, fighting roosters, baby chicks and white doves. Phyllis didn't get too close to those snakes and spiders, but Phyllis and Ruby did get pictures taken with the beautiful parrots. We had to purchase a great watermelon for $1.00 before returning back to the park. It was a fun day.

Dirk, Carrie, Dick, Lynsley, Nick, Denver, Joseph, Danielle, Dakota, Phyllis and Chris - Union Dairy in Freeport, Illinois was the gathering place for great sandwiches and delicious ice cream on October 6th.  We had a great time....
