We left Vancouver sometime Monday morning and pulled into the Seven Feathers Casino to spend the night, feed our faces and get rich on the slot machines. Well, we managed to spend the night in the rain, feed our faces and unfortunately we took very good care of my "red brothers". Had a nice dinner though, I had steak and lobster and Becky chose two lobster tails and skipped the steak. Breakfast at the casino on Tuesday morning and we left with a couple of dollars of casino money..........not enough to make up for Monday. Oh yeah, Becky also picked up her Seven Feather's BD gift.........which happened to be a flashlight which is battery operated and you can also recharge it by squeezing the handle. She also received $5.00 on her player's card and a big bag of jerky..............she chose Jalapeno since she knows that I won't touch anything that might even be remotely HOT!
Weather finally cleared up and we had a nice drive the rest of the way to Corning. It was actually "warm" when we got home; but, had a forecast of rain coming in. So, while Becky got started on 10 days of laundry, I mowed the weeds. Partially unloaded the M/H (I'm not sure why since we are leaving again on Friday) and now guess we'll be reloading tomorrow. We got home in time to head for the casino for "Old Folks" lunch so pigged out on the buffet. My favorite slot machine was occupied so finally picked one out that I had never played before. It gobbled up my $20.00 and I was down to my last $2.24 cents when up pops a BONUS. I was awarded 100 free slot spins and when everything was completed I cashed in $258 and some change. We left shortly thereafter. Becky got $10.00 of slot play for her BD and nothing else. Our casino is cheaper than Seven Feathers!
Today was "go to Chico" day and we headed for Costco so Becky could pick up her new glasses. Haven't heard her complaining so guess they got her new prescription right this time.
Geocaching event in Red Bluff that starts on Friday so we'll spend two overnights there in an RV park and come home on Sunday. Lots of caches in Red Bluff so maybe we'll be able to make up for the caching we haven't been doing and add a few numbers. We joined N.U.T.S. (Northstate Unusual Treasure Seekers) and we should be presented with a Big Nut for finding over 2,000 caches. They guzzy up walnuts for 1,000 and 2,000 finds and with the 2,000 finds they present you with a BIG decorated walnut. 1,000 finds qualifies you for a smaller walnut. Should be fun and we'll see cachers we know and most likely meet some new ones. No rain in forecast and temps expected to be in low 70s so it should be a nice weekend.
Later, W&B
