| 4th-floor view of Gulf of Mexico |
Last week, Sage and I were thisclose to calling off the adventure. The details in all their gory glory are described in previous posts, if you're interested. We did not give up, fortunately, and went on to have a truly wonderful Christmas holiday on South Padre Island, Texas. El Valor and Truckwagon enjoyed the break, too, I think. The view from our 4th-floor hotel room included the pool and hot tub downstairs, boardwalk crossing dunes and natural vegetation, a ribbon of sandy beach and the Gulf of Mexico. Roughly one-half of the "frame" of our view was water...delightful. We swam in the pool and soaked in the hot tub, where we met families and expectant young couples thrilled to be celebrating winter holidays in a warm, sunny location. Of course, we met a lot of retirees, too. They got a kick out of Sage's lack of fear of the water. One family we met from Missouri are part of a Christian band and ministry,

Warm temps and light beach breezes overlooking the Gulf of Mexico. Heated pool and hot tub for cooler nights. Hot breakfasts and two-drink happy hours, daily. Christmas dinner spread with live entertainment and movies. Visit to Sea Turtle, Inc. Laid-back attitude. Yes, this plan worked out beautifully. And now we are on to our next adventure...
