We came home for lunch then drove into McAllen to find rope lights for under the RV. We have been told that there are pack rats here and if you leave a light on under your RV, they won’t bother it. We went to Camping World first. They had rope lights but they were very expensive so we went to Walmart. Sunday afternoon at Walmart is not a good place to be! We didn’t find any rope lights there. We stopped at Academy, no rope lights. Then Mark saw a Home Depot and thought they might have them. They did! So we got lights and a dusk/dawn timer and came home.
We had a wonderful visit/dinner with some friends that live down here. It was a terrific ending to a terrific day!
