Jan 7-31 A Slow Month

Its been a pretty slow month for us. Susan got her annual check-up at M.D.Anderson (all good) and I do my annual checkup next month. My doctor did adjust my blood pressure medicine again trying to get it regulated. I email my readings so he can make changes. Club volleyball is going strong for the girls. Tournament protocols allow only two spectators per player. We have been able to watch Ashley once and Sammi once. While it does suck it sure is nice to watch the games without all the crowds. The weather has been mostily wet and drizzly so I haven"t spent much time at the deer lease. I went and got my Ranger and brought it home. It was pretty filthy but got the first washing done. We were looking around to go camping somewhere close for a week . Friday and Saturday night are almost impossible to get as everything is already reserved for the month. We drove down to Sea Rim State Park just to look at it. It is a small park with just a few sites. It does have a lot of beach that you can drive to or walk. The few sites we like are booked solid till April. On our way home we stopped at Pine Tree Lodge to eat an early supper. Its been here a long time but has been rebuilt since I have been there years ago. The shrimp we had was really good and fresh. As far as camping we decided to just to stay home for the month and wait for better weather in Feb. We booked a week at Lake Corpus Christi State Park toward the end of the month. On a much sadder note for us and the USA, I went to Corrigan and brought the Cardinal home. Kevin has been living in it the last year as he has been working in Arp and Corrigan building pump stations. Biden shut down Keystone XL and put thousands of workers out of a job. The trickle down effect will continue. Then he hit the drilling operations. The US better wake up. I could go on and on but i will stop at this. It"s going to get ugly.
