Happy Thanksgiving!

 

Is this the street where you live?

 

This from Barb Brooker-

 We are settled into this very different year in the Rio Grande Valley with Covid-19. The task force of Hidalgo county that is handling the rules for behavior has gained positive national recognition for their success. 

Wash your hands, wear a mask, and socially distance is being adhered to here better than anywhere else we have ever been. And the numbers show at a modest 6.75% that it works.

And our park is steller in their abidance of the rules.

We are warm, healthy, and happy to be here!

They are still burning cane fields in the Rio Grande Valley:

Till next time!
