From Pam & Bob P.#611, these gorgeous pictures of their visit to South Padre Island. I've never attended the SPI Kite festival, but you can bet I will try in the future. What wonderful pictures, Pam & Bob!
SPI Kite Fest
If Harry (remember poor Harry with his sad tale of woe?) hadn't left his issue of "Winter Texan Times" on the table during Saturday's pot luck breakfast, Bob and I wouldn't have known about the Kite Fest Sunday, February 1 on South Padre Island. Thanks, Harry!
We had a great time despite bumping into a scary motorcycle gang. You can see from the picture what we were up against.
(Don't let those smiling faces fool you.)

(Don't let those smiling faces fool you.) In addition to a picture of that motorcycle gang, I got some shots of the kites and kite-flyers that you might enjoy. If you missed the Kite Fest this year, I bet you'll get another chance next year!
Just spectacular! Thanks Pam & Bob.******
Now...some more recommendations including some leftover restaurant reviews from Jan. If you have more suggestions, send them to me via e-mail or as comments on the blog and I'll compile them.

The passenger side of our truck got "hurt" while driving on Seminary when we first got here. George and Pauline gave us a great recommendation for a body shop they had used and we concur...they were great. Betancourt Collision Center, located at 1226 N. Closner in Edinburg. Telephone: 956-316-2084. Juan Betancourt is from "the old school" of service and offers lifetime warranty on repairs. We have brochures at #225 if needed. Les and Janet

Milano's in Weslaco has authentic Italian flavors.For A great Italy Experience. I strongly recommend Milanos.Located on the Victoria Road exit, between Donna and Weslaco.Stay on frontage road and Turn on Milano Street.It even has a street named after itself. How Kewl is that. --Mariana

Johnny Carino's- 2600 North Expressway 956-986-2550. Bill and I highly recommend Carino's, we have eaten there twice and the food was delectable, great portions, and the service is friendly and efficient . I would not miss the lobster ravioli, yum.-- Karen and Bill

Here's one for breakfast. It's The Moonlight Cafe on Closner, it's very good and you get plenty of foods. The lunch and dinner are also good, and the prices are reasonable.--Lisette
