Why are we eating sand? Are we birds?

My hips didn't feel good this morning so I just walked my route, no jogging. Evelyn did exercise while I was showering. I took some trash to the dumpster and went to get coffee and talked to a neighbor about the coffee job. He is going to take it for next year too. Then we gathered our beach things and loaded them into the Durkin's van. We picked up the Bowers and went to Brownsville to get Popeye's chicken and take it to Boca Chica beach for a picnic. It was a pleasant but cool day. The wind was much stronger on the Gulf than it was in Weslaco. Therefore, we were cool and had mouthfuls of grit. We did have a good time and were back by 5:15 so Evelyn could go to her Thursday evening Bible study. I just stayed home and watched CSI and Without a Trace until she got home. We just had popcorn for dinner. We will go out with Jones and Newcomers for hamburgers at Peppers in McAllen. It will likely be our final party together since Sharon Newcomer is leaving Monday for a month and the Jones' will be leaving before she gets back. Good night, Ray.
