Three River's Casino Near Florence, OR...........

...........we got here about 1430, parked and had a late lunch in the casino buffet. Not too bad considering they were closing at 1530 for the evening buffet. They still had brunch going so Becky and I both found stuff to our liking.........me breakfast and then loaded up on pie and ice cream..........not sure what "B" had, looked mostly like rabbit food; but, she was happy.

First pic is our "free" spot for the night that cost me $40.00 in the slots. I was losing, came back to where I was only losing $4.00; but, not enough sense to pay just $4.00 for the RV spot.........had to lose it all back!

Got our first look at the sand a few feet from where we parked. Also parked next to the original casino, a dinky quonset hut. Last pic is pointing to the hotel/casino. These "old injuns" have come a long way since the first time we stopped here!

Got the internet for Becky, I can pick up one satellite for the TV; but, that still gives me quite a few channels so we'll be content for the evening............unless we decided to visit the casino again. Little 2000w generator is running and gas should last until 2300, then I'll fill it up and it should be able to run until about 0800. We should have heat and my CPAP outta be working, not to mention the bed warmer, so we won't freeze if the temp dips too low tonight.

Beautiful day, sun has been shining and I would guess that the temperature reached the upper 60s...........no need for a jacket and it should remain this way the rest of the week. We'll sleep in until (??) and make the 45 mile drive to the sand dunes whenever we manage to get up in the morning. No hurry. Next pics from the beautiful sand dunes of Coos Bay, complete with lakes and tall trees, not to mention a few sand dunes. If anyone from Arizona should happen to check this out........all I can say is "Eat Your Heart Out!" Later. W&B
