Today we went to Hilltop Gardens farm, the home of Aloe farming and processing in the Rio Grande Valley. They have grounds to wander, and at least a hint of a hill. Of the 300-plus varieties of aloe worldwide, they have 200 species planted on display in this garden. (And a lot of other trees, shrubs, and flowers.)
We’ve been telling our kids we were going to take them to the gas station for lunch; not as a threat, but for the gastronomic and cultural experience. Some of the gas stations here house a Laredo Taco Company Mexican Food Court; a great variety of Mexican food behind the counter on a steam table. At this particular station your order, and any questions you have, need to be in Spanish and you’ll be answered in Spanish. They’ll cook up the tortillas fresh for you on the grill and assemble your meal. Very good food, and not just for a gas station either.
Jesse adopted Brian’s feet. She uses them as home-base while he’s standing and falls asleep on them whenever he sits down.
