This blogs sole purpose has transitioned to one of keeping in touch with each other. Over the years it has been primarily for letting everyone know what is happening and also for promotion to add more folks to our Winter Texan family. The core of things has changed and we must change along with it. We still want to know what is happening with our friends no matter where they may be located. So continue to let us know where you are and what is on your plate.

Memory Monday -Los Ebonos bike trip
These photo's were taken way back (2009?) when we could go across the Rio Grande by a hand pulled ferry. So we took a a bike ride to Los Ebonos after using the ferry to cross the river. Los Ebonos is a small village in Mexico quite near the border. It is pretty much untouched by tourism so it is more a flavor of the real Mexico. Tourists are not catered to there and in fact viewed with suspicion. We all paid different prices for the same food because the merchants did not know how to convert and of course we too only had a rough idea.
This trip is not possible now, or at least last I knew it wasn't, due to drug cartel activity and other dangers such as kidnapping.
