Ah! Memories of the RGV!
A wind that carries you and your bicycle the length of a 1/10 mile street without the need to pedal.
The struggle to push that bicycle back to your motor home at the end of that street.
Getting out of bed to roll in the window curtains that flap in the wind.
Wearing winter clothes many mornings.
Changing clothes two or three times a day to accommodate Really Gross Valley temperature variations.
Eating meals indoors because it's too windy to eat outside.
Eating meals indoors because there's no picnic tables -- anywhere. Gee could it be because of the wind?
Driving miles and miles for a good burger -- because driving miles and miles is where the closest good burger joint is.
Waiting in long lines because everyone else drove miles and miles to find that same burger joint.
The smell in some Walmarts because not everyone there flushes used toilet paper. Instead it's thrown toward an open container next to the commode, and the smell emanates from there. Also, their aim isn't always the best.
The pain of "holding it" until you get home.
Being known as"cheap" because of my choice to travel to the RGV for three months during the winter.
Faking my residence when a RGV native store owner tells me that "winter Texans" come down to the RGV with a dime and a T-shirt and don't want to change either one. (So much for native friendliness.)
Ah! Good memories of the RGV
Learning that you get what you pay for.
Learning there is a big difference between living and existing.
Learning literally hundreds of excuses to winter in the RGV.
Learning that excuses don't equate with reason.
Leaving the RGV a month early to enjoy the warmth of Florida
