We enjoyed our pool several days with Janice leading us in water aerobics, then soaking up some sun.
As we were driving back to our hotel one day, I realized our condo was about 4 blocks from a border crossing to Mexico.

We knew Thursday was going to be rainy, so we scheduled massages for the 3 of us. What a nice treat. Afterwards, we drove past SpaceX, the private space station owned by Elon Musk.

We rented the condo until Saturday, but we had decided to take Janice back to Donna, TX on Friday, spend the night at their RV park and head back to Oklahoma on Saturday and Sunday. On Thursday, Bev talked to her son back in OK. He said if we didn’t make it back to OK by Saturday night, we wouldn’t make it back for another week. I guess we hadn’t been paying attention to the statewide weather. He was right!!
Had fun with the monkeys throughout the week!
We packed up Friday morning and drove along the Mexican border to see “the wall”. We dropped off Janice and headed north. There had already been some pile ups of automobiles with icy roads in the cities, so we took the scenic tour halfway up the state on Friday. On Saturday, we checked with the Texas Department of Transportation and got the go ahead to travel through Dallas. We made it back to OK in time to have dinner at our favorite German restaurant in Norman, OK.
