Jalitos for the Win!

Halloween came and went much like any other holiday has I’m sure the next two will be uneventful.

We carved the pumpkins , We bought the candy. And we went to the ranch . Yep you read that right . Two pumpkins $30 in candy and it’s all sitting at home . Derek left out and I went to run a couple of errands. I get a phone call it’s go hunting . It was the last day of bow season… We loaded up Henry and I packed a bag. And we where gone. Stop at the ever so popular Dairy Queen for lunch where I had to get a grilled chicken sandwich .. I don’t recommend it. I say go for the Jalitos . If you are a fan of bottle caps . Go for it. They were not bad . Better than the sandwich .

And on to Del Rio where I had to go to Heb for dinner. And on to border patrol check point where the guy was speechless. Seriously No questions asked. A look of  Are you kidding me ? is what we got . And after a very long look . We got have a good day . And I died laughing . Derek kind of chuckled. And Derek wondered what that was all about . I said “ you know how we pass the cameras and go cheese and fake cheesy smile ?” yeah . “ Well I saw him look at the monitor and we drove up . I guess they can see our pictures ! And then he understood the look and long stare. In 15 years this has never happened . We do this every time . And this is not something that has ever happened to us before.

To the ranch we went. The weather was actually nice and not hot , not cold . So you have heard me say this is not a place I ever desire to go. But if I have to go . I will pick hunting season. Less creepy things happen mainly cause their afraid of being shot. Henry ran around at the cemetery . Cleaned up a bit , I really want to throw some sunflowers away but I wasn’t sure I should. So I left them. I’ll let the sister handle that. Then Derek went on a hunt before the sun was gone I took pictures of the sunset and waited on the moon to rise. It was Bright !

You could see the glow over the hill . Then the sky went black and the orange ball appeared. I didn’t notice the glow from Mexico so much that night. Derek grilled dinner. Henry took his place on the couch and Derek let him . And then Derek crawled into a twin bed and started to snore. I cleaned up . Locked the doors and took a shower and just hung out . Sunday morning the sun bright and we loaded up and headed home . Texted numerous people for a favor . Yvette was the life saver.  She went over and put the pork butt on the smoker for us .  He forgot it had to cook about 15 hours.

Election day, someone will win and someone will lose.  I wonder if the whole world will go mad tonight. Let’s pray it doesn’t .  

Until next time
