This morning we drove back to Donna, TX, about 20 miles, for Bible Study at Victoria Palms. I think there were only 7 of us. More and more people are heading back north.
On the way back we stopped for lunch in La Fiera, TX.
We wandered around a little on our way back to the campground. We saw several fields of corn. In one field the corn was probably 8" tall. The corn in all the fields looked good. The farmers must be irrigating. Irrigation here is a lot different that what we have seen before. Farmers "plow" a dike, maybe a foot tall, around the perimeter of the field. They also cut a groove/furrow down between the rows of corn. When they want to irrigate they open a valve and flood the trenches between the rows.
At 5 PM we picked up the food Kathy had made and walked over to the Activity Center for a potluck supper. One couple at our table was from Canada, another from Minnesota and the third from Nebraska. They have all come here for multiple winters. We had a nice visit.
Today's high was 87, the overnight low was a very humid 67. When I got up our windows were all covered with condensation. During the day the humidity level dropped to the point that it was quite comfortable sitting outside in the breeze. At 9PM the temperature is 74 and the humidity is 89%.
God is good. I pray that He blesses you and yours.
