32

Our stop in Rio Hondo gave us the chance to visit a museum filed with fossils of giant sloths, giant armadillos, mastedons & saber tooth tigers. ...all were found near here.  We also found where some of the clothes we donate to Goodwill end up...here.  I actually bought a shirt with a USA Goodwill tag...for 60 cents.  Just a little ways away, there is a fancy and expensive mall.  Our hotel is also very nice with topiary bushes in the shape of animals, with hundreds of monstrous hanging ferns which surround several pools that had cleverly designed slides in the shape of butterflies, snails, castles, spirals, etc.  Seating in the restruant for 100's with place settings elegantly set...and we are the only ones eating except for the many workers and only saw one other couple in the pool.  It felt like a ghost hotel...or a hollywood movie set.
