EP is changing

Times..they are a'changing..

Here is some constructive praise for our good ole Eagle Pass. Let me say that this praise comes from someone who is highly critical but has learned to wait enough to let things change for the better. My compliment is for the citizens of Eagle Pass who/whom are doing things to our town. Eagle Pass is changing and looking much better. Not only is it clean but some people are fixing up their homes rather than buying those $50,000 empty lots. As much as we hate to see the old Aztec go, it has changed to office spaces in the downtown area. A gazebo and street benches has also added to the downtown area. So there is reason to be optimistic.

A Tribute to Mikey

A Tribute to Mikey

On Saturday I took my usual place on Ceylon Street and watched our annual Friendship Parade. Most of it was much like last year's with some exceptions. I was pleased to see two entries that acknowledged the passing of Mikey Castillo which paid tribute to him by showing his motorcycle. As told by those around me, Mickey loved riding his motorcycle. It was somewhat emotional to see his friends show their respect for his existence and demise. (Cell phone ringing..will finish later.)
