South Texas is full of Tex-Mex. I didn't catch some of the good signs e.g. "Put more sabor into your life."

A lot of driving on this trip! You'll get to see some of the "fun" things I saw along the road...just wait for the page of water towers! So exciting!

The mission home. Many memories happened here (especially in the kitchen!) It was nice to just relax with President and Sister Scott this time.

So bad shot of this Bonita Park. It actually looks kind of bonita in this shot...green grass, warning sign. This was actually a typical government housing area that Ryan taught in quite a bit. Let's just say it wasn't a very happy, bonita place.

The lighthouse at Port Isabel. Good view from the top...but just look at that sky! I love the sky down south!

We crossed the bridge to that narrow strip of land in the distance. So against the rules back in the day. (but really there wasn't much over there...)

So we made a list of things to take photos of...like a game...One was at least two interesting Texas people. Worried I'd run out of time, I took pictures of random people (slyly) -- A minute later I look up and Ryan is talking to them. Super nice. They said they'd have the Elders over to chat and for food. (Not the most flattering picture of them, yet its so natural.)
