and presently swealtering in the heat...........although Becky ses it ain't even warm yet! Reached triple digits while in Woodland so sure am glad we chose to stay at the Woodland Fairgrounds as I had the A/C running for two days.
This was a dual happy BD and Mother's Day celebration for "B" since we were in WA when those two days rolled around. She and Rhonda spent Saturday shopping and getting pampered with manicures, pedicures and full body massage cures. Saturday evening Steve cooked up some sumptous ribeye steaks that were done to perfection. Sunday, baseball practice for Brutus and Steve so Rhonda, Jace, "B" and myself when to breakfast at the local diner for biscuits and gravy. This diner used to make sausage gravy from scratch; but, think they joined the pre-mix circuit. Gravy still good but not like it used to be.
I made it out to Cache Creek Casino on Saturday afternoon all by my lonesome. I drove into the parking lot to be greeted with about 15 tour buses. The joint was packed. I found that I had $20.00 worth of "free play" on my players card so used that up plus $10.00 of my own. Wandered around, played a couple more machines and finally left $6.00 ahead. That just about paid for my gas.
Today we ran a few errands in Corning, stopped by the local Jeep dealer to see what they had in stock and came on home. Been kinda thinking of a Jeep Wrangler to handle the really rough stuff around Yuma; but, today's little excursion kinda put that on hold. Oh well, somewhere out there I'm sure there's a Jeep for sale that the owner isn't in love with. I did find out one thing though...........the driver's seat doesn't fit me worth a crap.........I need a 4 inch high cushion to sit on just to see both front fenders! Old age must be shrinking me..........I used to be 5'10" and now I'm 5'7" (???)
Planted three geocaches this morning and now waiting for them to get published. Not as fast to publish around here as it is in Yuma.
Getting to hot to do anything else today so guess I'll just kick back and forgo my 4 mile run today. Later. W&B
