This morning we went over to Donna, TX, to the Don Wes flea market. Donna is 20 miles west of us. The flea market isn't much, at least at this time of year, but we like the "farmers market" fruit and vegetable stand there. Two years ago we spent a month at Victoria Palms Resort in Donna. It borders the flea market. The photo below shows only a small part of whats available. We bought a bag of big onions, a bunch of green onions and a big bag of grapefruit. The big bag of grapefruit is still only $4, the same as last year.
The roofed area shown below has tables where people can sit down and enjoy some of the food offerings at the flea market. Back in the far corner is a guy singing classic country and western songs.
Another reason we like going over there is Moran's Pizza, where we went for lunch. The pizza we had today wasn't one of their best efforts. It had been in the oven to long.
After the pizza we went to a Walmart just down the street and bought a few groceries. There were a lot of people at the store but every checkout lane was open, in addition to the self checkout lanes. I was curious and walked down the length of the checkouts. Several of them only had the person unloading a cart in the lane. Not having to stand in a line to buy groceries seems to be an unusual event.
My supper, back at home. It sure is no chore to eat leftovers at our house. I had roast port, sauerkraut; mashed potatoes and corn bread leftover from our New Years Day meal. The radishes came from the HEB grocery. The green onions came from the flea market.
Today's high was a mostly sunny 82 degrees. It was quite windy with gusts up to 30 mph.
God is good. I pray that He bless you and yours. He has blessed me.
