LOCATION: In our tiny house in Retama Village, in Mission, Texas
WEATHER: Hot again. High 100
Today is our last day here. It is amazing that we found enough to do for the 5 months we have been here. This is the longest we have stayed here at one time. I hope the blog posts during these stay-at-home days have been interesting….or perhaps a teensy bit interesting!
We got up early to do outside chores before it heated up. We took everything out of the shed. We found a lot of mouse poop, but no mice. We also found several grand-daddy long legs and a black-widow spider!
There was a lot to take out….

George cleaned the shed and sprayed for bugs. After he put everything back in, it seemed like we have a lot more space!

This Facebook photo popped up from a trip we made to Yellowstone National Park with our friends Tony and Jenny. I sure hope we can get some hiking in this summer.

We cleared out the refrigerator and deep-cleaned it. We will leave it off while we are away, and don’t want any odors! We put sun shades – the reflective kind – in our windows behind the blinds for extra protection against the strong summer sun. Check, check, check more off the to-do list.
A delightful surprise – two of our favorite Retama Village couples dropped by to say goodbye. There are so many nice people here that we will miss!
DINNER: Sauteed shrimp with garlic and green onion. Side was pasta with the kitchen sink mixed in — tomato paste, green peas, onion, basil, mushrooms, and parsley.
