february fun

I still can't seem to get pictures to upload but figured it was time to update everyone on our doings. We have gone beyond the chilly rainy Jan. and have hit a warm sunny week just as we hear the news of the frigid cold up north.
We have some fun plans for the week-end to celebrate Wag's birthday. We have tickets for the symphony for Sat. night and our friends from SD are going with us again and we are going to go to our favorite restaurant in Corpus Christi called The Torch for dinner before hand.
One couple in our neighborhood who have been here for 2 months are leaving this weekend so there is a gathering on Thurs. afternoon to bid them farewell.
Our Methodist church here has just added the services of an assoc. minister who is a Hispanic gentleman and full of friendly enthusiasm. There is a considerable hispanic population in Mathis but not in our church so that may change in time, but he chuckled that some of his friends asked "What are you doing in that white church?"
Our exercise class was finally able to go back to outdoors for our class this morning after the weather kept us doing it in the central building for about 3 weeks. We have also been having a computer class that meets twice a week and i have learned a few things there, but some of it beyond my experience and too sophisticated for my equipment but still interesting.
We hope the weather up north moderates soon and we will be thinking of you.
