They are home

By
My daughter and mother arrived in the RGV around 10 am. Mom got some needed rest and the girl got some needed spoiling from my mother-in-law. My wife and I are relieved that they are safe. We can't wait for the next few weeks to end so that we can reunite with our daughter.
 
Just as a practical matter, I changed my Virgin Mobile rate plan to something that includes unlimited nights and weekends to three phone numbers of my choice. The numbers I chose include the two grandmas' homes and my wife's phone so that we can stay in touch without racking up my monthly cost.
 
I have some other news with a latent effect. My wife has decided to finish out this month and then head to the RGV. This effectively means that I shall be here by myself until October. This is partially due to getting back with our first child and as a result of some other issues. I would like to leave too, but I asked some people to stick up for me to get me back into the school. I don't want to leave them holding the bag, so I'll tough it out.
 
In any case, the new plan will be handy when my wife returns to the RGV. I put the plan to use earlier this evening with a couple of long phone calls.

Fall 2024 in the RGV

By
It's that time of year again when Winter Texans start to make their way south from the northern states. I have already had phone calls with a Winter Texan client who is getting ready to come down. I think it is fascinating that we can make friends from people who are visiting only seasonally.  Looking at the blog stats, I seem to get a peak in traffic every year. So I suppose it must be partly due to many of our friends coming back from up north.  Image generated by Gemini 1.5 Pro AI Speaking of seasons, we still have a couple of months to go before the end of hurricane season for 2024. We have been fortunate this year, compared to other parts of the USA. Although, south Texas could use the rain.  This time of year makes me happy as we finally have nights that are below 78F like we had all summer. This week we have had mornings in the 60s. While we still have hot days in the 90s, we at least get some respite in the evenings, leading to cool mornings.  Returning to RG...

The Mad Mexican

By
Years ago, there used to be a DJ at B104, a local radio station. Until recent years, B104 had a large audience. They played pop music. The Mad Mexican used to do the morning show with Gary Rodriguez, who is now involved in McAllen politics. Well, the Mad Mexican is still working, but on a national level. I heard him this morning on Aguila, XM 92. Aguila is the Mexican music station on XM Satellite Radio. It's great to hear from him again. He's still pretty wild. Gary Rodriguez? He worked for 107.9 for a while before going to KURV and then entering politics.
