___delayed Mother's day, sort of

___Joe Medina, a good friend, Laredo business man, and a classmate of Norma, well, class of 1958, is having a Special Dia de las Madres trio Festival tomorrow night at the historic American Legion open-air party place of yesteryear, several trio's, amongst them, "Los Romanticos", "Los Preferidos", "Los Impala" and others will perform, especially for the Madres de Laredenses who make an effort to attend. We will record the music and save it for future use on "Hot Town". Norma and I visited the historic party grounds which are now is disarray since their heyday when it was the preferred and most solicited place to host weddings, quinceaneras, y graduation parties. Remember, you use to be able to use the walkway and make your way to the edge of the river and remember there was an old Cannon on the edge of the dance floor pointed into Mexico, the view is still great in the evening as you can see the constant flow of cars going to and fro on the two International Bridges. it might prove to be a Memorable evening and which shall see who attends, Legion Commander and the man who greeted us as we planned our "shoot" tonight was none other than the former now much thinner former sherriff of Webb County el Juanito Garza, night before we attended a pre-event party hosted by Joe Medina at which we met most of the musicians who will entertain tomorrow night and special guest was none other than Luciano "Lucky" Duarte. we shared some carnitas i muchas cheladas, que vida !
