Horrors! ..........It Dared To RAIN............

last night and we awoke to a little moisture still on the ground! So today was a slow day in getting out of the blocks. Since it was still damp, Trace and headed to town to try and get an exhaust bracket welded on his little Suzuki. Got the job done and we hoped that it would last the next two days..............unfortunately it didn't so guess the Suzuki will have to stay home tomorrow.

Weather cleared up about noon so off to the dunes went Dug, Trace and I. I found a couple of other XPs to play with and promptly got beat racing up the hill by an XP with 10 paddle sand tires...........mine has 9 paddles and with the added exhaust pipe I continually get too much wheel spin. The kid with the 10 paddles got a good bite and jumped out in front of me by a carlength and stayed there until we ran out of room. His friend in another XP was trailing both of us. Guess I'll have to learn how to drive or get some 10 paddle tires. Then I was dumb enough to follow these two characters into the wooded area and I managed to break my flag off in low branches. Then to add insult to injury I high-centered the RZR and got STUCK. I was digging myself out and a group of ATVers came along and gave me a hand in getting unstuck. Dug and Trace found my flag so I called it a day a went back to camp. Not the best day in the dunes! Fortunately no one was around to take pictures when I was stuck.

Made a casino run and contributed to my Red Brothers and then we met the rest of the troops for a run to Baskin Robbins.............Baskin Robbins was closed for 3 days so ended up at DQ. Then Char, Becky, Tami and I made another casino stop (it was on the way home) and all of us made more contributions, except Char made a few bucks.

End of day, tomorrow has to be better since it is Seafood Buffet at the casino and time to pig out on fresh Dungeness Crab.

Still have taken any pictures..........that's the way it goes. Later. W&B
