Ropa Trip, Lunch and more fun












Oh my gosh the fun we had today!!!! Five girls from our park and one lady from the park across the road went on a trip to Ropa Usada. For those of you who don't know what that is, it is Used Clothing. What a time we had. Mary drove and Gwen, Wanda, Lollie, Elaine and I were along for the ride. We also took Milky whose picture you will see later. He is visiting from another state and was supposed to do as many things as possible so we took him with us for the adventure.

The first ropa we stopped at was the best organized. I have some pics of the ladies pawing through the treasures. Lollie found something black and slinky that she was tempted to buy. Milky made some friends and we took a pic of them too. Then we left for the second place. In the parking lot we met a woman in distress. Her car wouldn't start and she had to borrow a phone to call her husband. She told him to come and help her, but then a nice mexican man showed up and helped her get it started.

We went to the second place and found a few treasures there also. Things were .75 a lb there so didn't get an awful lot. Then we had worked up an appetite after climbing through the stacks so we headed out for La Trancas Taqueria for a plate of Panchos.

On our way home we went by Trade Winds park where they were picketing the managers. I have a pic of that also. Wow senior citizens are crazy people.

Now the morning and afternoon are almost done and Bill is sitting under the orange tree strumming his guitar. There may be time for a nap before we head out to Lonesome Dove for a hamburger.
