No Reservations

No reservations and we still got in. I had been wanting to take Guy and Janet and Hollis for some beef-to spend my Honorarium for judging photos at the Fremont County Fair. Inclination, schedules and opportunity coincided and we "got 'er done." We went to the casino "Red Willow Room." and dined rather well: Prime rib, filet, lobster tail, shrimp scampi, spinach with raspberry vinaigrette, potato of choice,the delicious mixed grill vegetables, and the over-the-top (mistake) Mexican chocolate mousse and chocolate sundae. The good company and fine food raised our spirits. Fortunately, we overshot the honorarium budget so I bought and we now have an excuse to try again. Janet brought me a sack of homegrown veggies from her garden-just enough so I can eat things fresh-potatoes, corn, green pepper, turnip. This is a treat.

The vistas from the Casino site appeal to me so I paused after dinner to take a few snaps (no cameras in the Casino so you will just have to imagine.) Had the night not sneaked up on us the views might have been different. The pups got some good scraps and were patient waiters. I had parked them in the shade of an RV and noted that the Casino provides plug-ins for RV's. Nice touch.

We didn't gamble a dime but I did pick up some Casino pens as souvenirs. They are great pens. It is fun to see who is gambling. Friday night, the place was booming and they were still streaming in as we streamed out.
