Yep, It was Sunday once again. Many folks weeks rely on Sunday being a "marker:" for the week. Not so with us travelers, even though Sunday often is. Those of us that are consistent church attenders or members, just seem to know when Sunday rolls around. Other days of the week may fade into oblivion, but not Sunday. ( I imagine the Jewish folks have a similar feeling about Saturday?)
So briefly we have:
1. A trip to the First UMC , where, after reading the outdoor bulletin board's regular schedule, as we drove by, found that the 9:00 and 11:00 services were on hiatus today as there was a special 10:00 service centering on Child Abuse. We arrived 15 minutes before the 11:00 and saw that maybe they were running late at the 9:00. This day was a special service for all. There is normally a traditional service at 9:00 and a Contemporary one at 11:00 . We heard some of the service and lingered until the end. So I am not sure that "counts" for attending a service! HA!

2. Lunch at "Rosita's " Restaurant. Strictly Mexican cvuisine, and delicious and hot as from the oven. All home made dough for the nchiladas, tortillas, and chalupas. I had the Mexican Platter (3 entrees) , and will have some for supper . Ruth likes eggs so had bacon and eggs.They chop the bacon here, as many dishes have everthing combined/. Very good cuisine and just a few blocks away.

3. A trip to Firestone for a lube and oil change before we hit the road tomorrow for San Antonio, as well as a short stop at Sam's to get cheese and some fruit for Jim. Mission accomplished.
Our site in Palm Gardens RV I didn't post yet so I'll add that with a moon shot from last night (full moon or almost?) See ya down the road.
