Rio Grande Valley - Mission, Texas

We arrived early Wednesday afternoon at "Hidden Valley Ranch" in Mission, Texas. We decided to stop at King Ranch on our way out of Mission on December 29th since the tours don't start until noon. This is a very nice RV community...Reid & Debbie's lot is in the connecting park, "Leisure Valley Ranch". They are only 3/10 of a mile from us, or for them just a short golf cart ride. The weather has been great here...in the 80's with a light breeze most of the time. We are only about 4 miles from the Mexico border. We went out to dinner with Reid & Debbie for Thanksgiving and the 4 of us have been eating together most evenings. Reid grilled up some delicious steaks last night and tonight Bob is grilling pork chops. I must say, "THIS IS THE LIFE!" The guy from Michigan that we rented this lot from even gave us the combination to the shed so we can use his grill, patio set, etc. Our lot has an aluminum roof over most of it and is all concrete. Much different than what we are used to!
