Ha bet you all are glad I am back !!  We got back late today. both of us were so tired. I am surprised that I am able to do my blog tonight. We went all the way down to Auburn to the Muckleshoot casino in Auburn Washington. It was so big we could only manage to do a portion of the casino, but that was enough for me  as I was winning well. Not huge but a nice number.  Ray did not do that well but today he really knocked the socks off them in the Silver Reef while I on the other hand did not LOL. We visited the casinos all the way up the I5 stayed the night in Auburn and also in Skagit.
We ate at the restaurants for each meal . Although we only ate two meals a day because they were buffets. We did not eat very large platefuls as we are not able to . But we were surprised at the contents of the plates coming off the buffet. Whew!!
We did have a good time and did not come home broke by any means.
The bad side of the trip was we got so tired and our legs were stiff and shoulders were sore. Tonight we'll hopefully have a good sleep.
We both thought it was a good trip and we'll do it again. I figured out why the casinos are so full of old people in wheelchairs and with walkers. It is the only entertainment they can do in their handicapped state . It gets us out of the house. I am lucky that  I can go to my sewing groups though. That always makes me happy.
And I got some free shampoo too LOL.
 And I took no pictures, what kind of interesting pictures can you take at 70 miles an hour on the I5, just miles of concrete haha.
Mary took some adorable pictures of Rose in a tutu and angel wings.


Now if I could just get some new photos of Charlotte. How about it Meaghan?

This is just adorable and a prime example of someone who thinks outside the box LOL. Or has an inflated opinion of himself. And I know it is a male as he has blue spots above his beak and that is a good way to tell the sex, the female has beige ones.

My dear Sunbonnet Sues cannot keep their hands off the quilts and now they are in the chain gang LOL
I laughed out loud at this one !!

My time is up for tonight.
Have a great evening!
Buona Sera.
