The rules say that I can go buy food. Does that mean that I can go to HEB and buy groceries or does that mean I can go and buy food at El Patos in their drive through line? I called El Patos on 10 street and they have their drive through window open.

You should be just fine going to the Duck, and any place else that has the drive through. In all honesty, I don't think rules are being much enforced in any of the Valley counties.

Don't plan on fishing Port Mansfield. I just heard the boat ramps were closed.

Ohh... and bring me 3 rice/carne guisada patos w/ jalapeo while you are out!!!

No chit? Boat ramps closed? That is just getting asinine.

I like CCA, Chicken Cheese and Avocado. Goodness gracious that stuff is good.

Yup. Unless your boat is in a slip; ain't leaving from there.

I was going to share that on the "WA state closed recreational fishing" thread on the outdoor board - but that thread has devolved into such a **** show it's not worth even reading any more.

I weep for the old outdoor board.

In the old Mansfield days the locks would have been cut, and or anyone with any importance would have had a key or the combo.

When I was a long haired free wheeling youth, I experienced some interesting times in Mansfield, a lot of the interesting characters are either dead or gone now. But I am sure that there are still a few around. Place sure cleaned up during the 10's.

Shouldn't have wasted all that hair in your youth amigo. Save some for later.....

Ha, if I had known what I was headed for I would never have cut it.....now it is just a PIA to deal with.

I sure hope things are cope up in Willacy county, These are some odd ass times.

Dang it oldvalleyrat... now this has me jonsing for some El Pato.

That'll learn ya. I have to have a fix pretty often. I believe they have the best Mexican rice in McAllen. I always buy a quart or two for our Christmas eve family dinner, to go with tamales from Delia's of course. My son (lives in Plano) always has to go when he comes down for a visit.

Can you imagine how much money an El Pato would make in College Station along with some nice Modelo!

We got take out migas from Sweet Temptstions this morning. They probably had 5 cars there picking up orders.

I'm surprised Pappadeux closed everything down. We ordered that for lunch at work on Thursday.

My inlaws have stated how eerie it is at the port right now

Comadre, I hate to break it to you, it has always been eerie in Port Mansfield!

No mientes. It hasn't always been like that. The weekends were bustling.

This past weekend should have been the Todos Loco's tournament. I think they rescheduled it for October.
