Sine we will be traveling tomorrow I thought that today would be good to catch up the Blog.
This week started out with lunch over at Becky & Lew Moyers place with several friends of theirs from Canada and other from the Valley who work at Habitat for Humanity. We met Becky and Lew in Dade City several years ago and then they came to Texas to work. It was good to see them and visit with the other people.   They suggested we contact the Affiliate here to see about doing some Care A Vanner work here in Texas.
The rest of this week has been just do whatever.   On Tuesday we decided to go into Progresso Mexico.   We have been several times when we have been down here but now with all the violence in Mexico, (which is further down in the country) some people were saying dont go and other saying it was okay.   Progresso is just a little tourist town and we park on the US side and walk across the bridge.   We spent about 3 hours over there and got back ok.   I texted Bry and his buddy Shane if they did not hear from us by 5 pm to send the "big guys with the big guns".   They understood my meaning. 
Yesterday we went to the Border Patrol Headquarters in Welesco and we given a very informative tour and information about what happens when they find illegals trying to come into the US.   It was really interesting and the Border Patrol people really have a hard job and work hard.
Tomorrow we are heading to Louisiana for a 2 week build for Habitat.
