Wednesday, October 22 – We made another trip to Nuevo Progreso, Mexico, last Friday with Angie and Rick.
Paul and Rick wanted to get haircuts ($4) at what they call "The best barbershop anywhere," (They really do like the haircuts they get at Gloria's Barbershop.), Angie had an appointment at her dentist for a cleaning, and Marsha had some shopping to do.
Marsha was shopping for our daughter, Carrie. She recently moved to a new apartment and wanted some pottery to display on her shelves. Marsha had scouted out various selections on our last trip to Mexico and taken some pictures for Carrie to look at and see if it was what she was looking for. Carrie picked several vases. Marsha was picking them up today to take to Houston.
An outdoor bar located in a dentist mall.
After haircuts and shopping, we headed over to Arturo's for lunch.
We had a delicious Mexican dinner and a couple Margaritas.
Then it was upstairs in the Galleria to the Cantina to listen to the band and do some dancing. What fun!

Angie and Marsha are always out dancing and meeting new people.
Rick showing us his moves.
Attention all the ladies out there….A little unknown fact about some el baño de señoras (ladies' restrooms) in Mexico. Be sure to check the wall when you enter a restroom in Mexico. You may have to pick up the paper before you enter the stall. What a hoot!
Marsha got her two permanent crowns, filling and teeth cleaned Tuesday, yesterday, morning. We are all set to head for Houston, and we plan to do that Friday morning. Before we arrive in Houston, we are stopping in Goliad, Texas, for a few days.
Thanks for stopping by. Hope to see y'all back real soon. Have a great day!
Way too much fun, you guys. We need to get to Mexico and have dental work done. I know I need three crowns and Jim needs a couple.
ReplyDeletealways a fun time to be had in Progresso...
ReplyDeleteHappy trails to you guy until we meet again and Marsh, I think you need a hat like Angie's.
ReplyDeleteHope you are in Houston long enough for us to touch base. . .we're getting back there as quick as we can. . . :)
ReplyDeleteYou're just two party animals that's for sure. If I sent you a list of everything I wanted, could I count on you to deliver it too?
ReplyDeleteSounds like a great trip across the border with Angie and Rick. Must be some wonderful margaritas over there. Good you and Angie were making new friends, Marsha!
ReplyDeleteLucky Carrie to be getting new decorations for her apartment.
Hope your dental visit went smoothly. Travel safely!
Are you staying at the state park there? We worked as docents in the museum there a few years back. Nice campground .
ReplyDeleteGotta love visiting Mexico!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a wild time:)
ReplyDeleteGood times in Mexico! I think all dentists should have bars outside their offices!
ReplyDeleteInteresting place to put the TP. Glad you found out first.
ReplyDeleteGotta love the fun times in Mexico, enjoy your times there and wherever you are.
ReplyDeleteAH, recognize that plaza well. Got my teeth cleaned and partial plate at the dentist upstairs facing the bar area.
ReplyDeleteMaybe it's better to stop for a drink before seeing the dentist??
ReplyDeleteDid Angie trip on her untied shoe lace? I sure would. A margarita before dentist appt...sounds good to me. Of course a margarita anytime sounds good to me.
ReplyDeleteAh, you sound like me shopping for my daughter. I'd rather shop for her than myself. Looks like a good time was had by all. Safe travels :-)
ReplyDeleteYou are making me miss Mexico. Our original plan was to retire in Mazalan where we used to go 2-3 times a year. Sure looks like you are having fun and getting some important purchases made.
ReplyDeleteYou've got some moves goin' on out there on the dance floor Marsha! As for the banos, picking your paper up at the door was the norm. They don't like to spare any squares!
