February 7 through 12, 2012

Tuesday 7~~~~~We left Mesquite this morning for Vegas, Gary wanted us to stay a few more days but we have a lot of places we want to get to before it is time to head home to Oregon. After we got the trailer all set up, I fixed us lunch and we went over to the Casino to the movies. The Casinos have the nicest movie theatres in them with 6 movies to choose from. We went to the movie "Red Tail", we really enjoyed it, today was free popcorn day for seniors. We had just ate lunch, so we gave our popcorn certificates to some young couple who really appreciated the huge bags of free popcorn. After the movie we went home, as we had 7 days of gambling in Mesquite and didn't need any more today. LOL Wednesday 8~~~~Today we went to another movie at the casino, it was
"Up close and Personable". It was a real different sort of movie from what I expected, but it ended good. We went over to the Cannery Casino after the movie and every machine we played liked us. We left there with all the money I had lost in the slots at Mesquite plus some, so we were happy over that. Tomorrow our friends from Yellowstone Don and OJ are coming here, so we will be busy with them. Thursday 9~~~~Don and OJ called us this morning and they weren't sure where we were camped, so we drove over to where they were parked and brought them back to our place. I fixed us some bagels with cream cheese and my freezer raspberry jam and coffee, we haven't seen each other for several years, we had a lot of catching up to do. They gave me a beautiful red tulip plant, how sweet of them. I gave OJ a badly needed haircut and then we drove around and showed them Vegas, they haven't been here for several years. We had a nice dinner out together and after dark, we drove the strip to show OJ and Don all the action and the music and lights that are so pretty. They wanted to see the "Pawn Stars" store that is on TV so we went there. I took a couple of neat pictures of all the "Super Bowl" rings that they have there that were pawned over the years. I can't oimagine anyone pawnig their Super Bowl ring., We got home about 11:00 PM and I was pretty tired from all that walking. Friday 10~~~~ Today I did the laundry and Kent did some work on the computer.
Saturday 11~~~~ We stayed home today and I gave myself a haircut, we went to Mass and out for Pizza afterwards. Gary is coming here tomorrow, so we will be busy and on the go again.
