Special Thanks to the City of La Joya, Community of Cuevitas, Los Ebanos and Jara Chinas Ranch for providing some much needed nourishment and drinks throughout the day.
Thank you Laco and Nellie Flores; and Alicia Montes of Jara Chinas Ranch for opening your homes as a haven for us to rest, relax, and replenish. The food and drinks were delicious and fulfilling; and the easy listening sounds delivered by Barbara Jean Sundberg were soothing and relaxing.
i apologize if I failed to mention someone. It is not intentional. I am exhausted as our day began at 5:30 a.m. and is concluding now at 5:00 p.m. It was a long day in the Texas Heat!
Thank you to everyone involved in our rendition of honors.
