    I don’t generally do memes of this type in my actual blog. Might post it at LJ. But thank you for thinking of me.

    *I* have given *you* an Excellent Blog award. See MissMeliss DOT com for details.

    Thanks, Erin. Warmed me up.

    MissMeliss — No pressure. I tag people, but only expect them to do the meme if they are in a meme-type mood. ;-)

    Kevin — I saw your list. Yay! Sadly, I can’t comment on people’s blogs that use blogger when I’m at the office. Our filters won’t allow it. :-( Anyway, that’s why I haven’t had a chance to do the comment alerts thing. Or to figure out how to display that blog award graphic that my friend Theresa had on her blog.

    I knew you must be away from where your bells and whistles worked. I thought maybe it was somewhere LIKE S. Padre… Ouch. That was cruel. I’m remembering your sigh now. I’m sorry.

    I was really just trying to segue into how Padre was one of my saviors when I lived in Texas. That island and Mexico. (I went to military school near there. ick.)

    LOL! Thinking about SPI is never a bad thing. My husband grew up in Brownsville, so we’ve had many vacations on SPI. I love it all the time, but the best is in the off season. Our best trip there was a week in April — peaceful, not crowded, yet still warm enough to be outside. Our honeymoon there in January was nice, too, though — despite the rain. :-)

    So your husband is quite familiar with Matamores. That’s where I learned about the world.

    I had a friend who’s dad had a condo on Padre. I’ve been there every time of year but July. It’s nice a lot of the time.

    I’ll bet your honeymoon was great.

    Matamoros? It’s been so long…

  8. emkinch October 16th, 2008 11:44 am

    Strangely enough, I’ve yet to visit Matamores. I’ve always wanted to, but my in-laws don’t cross the border much and somehow we’ve never gotten around to it.

    But, yeah, I know my husband spent time there while he was growing up. :-)
