Up early , read the paper, ate, showered and set off down the road for Washington state. What were we thinking!!!! When we got near to the border not close mind you but in the vicinity, the roads were all lined up for miles. No way were we sitting in those lineups. I am sure the wait time would be four hours at least. So we took off for home but our route took us through the lovely little town of White Rock. We drove along the water front, took in the ocean which was so gorgeous , on up the hill through beautiful neighbourhoods with lovely homes and marvellous gardens. So the rest of the day was pretty normal , we shopped for groceries and went to the casino in New Westminster. I won $600 yippee.... I gave $300 to Ray. We always share our winnings. Then I went on to win another $150. Good DAY!! I am richer now:>).
When I have extra $$$ I put them in a cloth envelope and spend that money on whatever I want for myself or I take someone special to lunch, give $100 to one of the grandchildren who needs a bit of a lift.
We had a hotdog and chips at the casino for a bit of a late lunch. No dinner so far, maybe a light bit of something.
My hand work for tonight is going to be knitting the second sock. Yes I have finished the first one. I may even get them done somewhere in September, wouldn't that be nice. Then I want to make a pair of heavy duty socks for Katie as she will be moving up north to Fort MacMurray and has been talking about heavy socks.
It will be my pleasure to make them for her. There is lots of yarn in my basket.
Time to get to work LOL I'll put the yarn on the blog.Help me choose. I am inclined to the purple.
Have a great evening and a grand day tomorrow.
Bon soir!

If that is a nice dark pink , go with that, although the purple won't show the dirt as much when she is walking around without slippers. What were you going to do in Washington State ? Jean
We were going to a casino there Jean.
