Flea Market and Casino

Hi There! This morning we went back to that Flea Market again that we went to last weekend. It’s a huge flea market and we needed some more brackets for the shade that was put up last night from the awning to the ground. We got the brackets…these brackets makes sure the awning stays straight instead of sagging at both ends. I’ve got pictures of what the awning and shade looks like…..

Looks good huh!! I know :) Anyways, after the Flea Market we came back to the RV to eat lunch and then headed off to the casino. Ugh, I lost $30 bucks. But all in all, it was good day! Tomorrow, we are going to Old Yuma to eat dinner at Lutes Casino (noooo, not a real casino, I’ll tell ya all out it tomorrow) and watch the downtown parade! I’ll be bringing my camera just for you! :) Have a great night and I’ll leave ya with some pictures of the Christmas tree we put up today in the RV :)

Casino and Recreational Hall

Hi! We didn’t do much today. This morning around 10am we headed off to the Quechan Casino. It was a last minute decision, or maybe I was just the last one to know, but anyways, I didn’t get a chance to eat breakfast so when we got to the casino, I took advantage of their buffet! I got one of those player’s cards and that magic card took 2 dollars off my buffet bill, so I ate for $4.95 instead of the regular price of $6.95. Yeah, the highlight of my day, huh? So I scouted around for a Keno machine. They don’t have live Keno there, but they have those Multi-Games machines where you can play Poker or Keno on. So I found a Keno machine. I love Keno! $40 bucks lasted me 3 hours at that machine. I left with cashing out $17.11. So I lost, but it’s okay, I had a great time. I love Keno! (I know I said that already!) :)
So we came back home and our neighbor helped Dad install the screen for our RV….now, hang on, let me explain this to ya. We bought one of those screens that hook to the end of the awning and comes down to the ground blocking the sun out. I couldn’t get a picture of it today because by the time it was all set up and the guys got done fooling around with it, the sun went down, but I have to get a picture of this tomorrow, it is so cool! Looks great tomorrow. I’ll get pictures tomorrow.
Tonight at the recreational hall was Card Bingo at 7pm. I’ve never played Card Bingo before and it’s pretty easy and I like it alot. You play Bingo with playing cards and four players. Each player gets 13 cards and then the cards are called out by an announcer, and if your card matches his card you place that particular card in a pile in the middle of the table and whoever is out of cards first is the winner. Pretty easy, pretty simple. Now, that is every Wednesday night at the recreational hall. Hey, I’m getting my schedule set up here. I’ve got Bingo at the Paradise Casino on Monday nights, I’ve got Card Bingo at the recreational hall on Wednesday nights, okay, I’m ready to retire. I can live with this schedule. We played 13 games tonight and it lasted an hour and a half.
Tomorrow we are going back to the Flea Market to look around and pick  up some more corn. We bought some corn on the cob last time we were there for 5 for a dollar and it was super good, so we are going to mosey around and get some more corn. Hey, when you live the retired life, it’s the little things that count! :)
I did watch the weather today on TV and saw the snow up north. Some people emailed me and let me know just how long they had shoveled for today. Tell me how you are managing with all that snow. I want to hear from you. Leave me a comment! :) Well, I’m going to call it a night, so I’ll be back tomorrow with picture. Promise! :)

Outside Recreation….

Hi! Today we didn’t go anywhere. No where at all. We got quite a few things done, but didn’t mosey out of the park. Last night there was a wind storm. Wind Storm? Dust Storm? Sand Storm? Not sure what to call it, but it rocked the Montana all night and Jake was up whimpering all night long. He didn’t know where to take cover. Because not only did it rock the RV, but it was loud! Whistling and howling thru the park making its way between all the campers here.
This morning I woke up rather late, around 9 and stepped outside to see most of the RVs and vehicles covered in a light brown dust. I saw people dusting off their cars and one lady saw me and said, “Hello Survivor!” Yeah, it was that bad. Anyways, we called the company that comes around and washes your RV for ya. Portable car wash?? Well, it’s a full size van and three guys who go around and wash campers. Now, you know how big our RV is and they only charged us $35 dollars and an extra ten bucks to wash the Dodge. As they were washing our RV, one of the guys kept getting phone call after phone call and I kept hearing him say, “Yes, Sir, we will be there as soon as possible.”  and “Yes, we will get to you as soon as we are done this RV.” I guess business is pretty good for them….
We called up another RV company today too….now, this is pretty cool….there’s a company down here and I can’t remember the name, but I can look it up if you want the info, but it’s a company that goes around and repairs campers (remember our broken leg). So we called them up and asked them to stop by and check the leg on the camper. They agreed and then we asked if they would work with the Keystone Extended Warranty and they said YES! Now, wait a minute here, usually for warranty work and any type of RV work, you usually make an appointment at the dealership, then wait two months for your schedule appointment to arrive, then when you get there and get the camper in, they have to inspect the repairs needed and then call your warranty company and then order the parts, blah, blah, blah, you get the picture…..
So, when this RV repair company stopped by today, they took the leg right off the camper and took our warranty information. Upon inspecting the leg after they took it off, they said that it was a sheared pin and they can repair it and bring the leg back to us the next day. Wow. We are not people that want a whole new camper because something is broke, we just want it repaired, and it’s better if the money doesn’t come out of our pocket or if we don’t have to haul the RV to the dealership for repair work. So we will see tomorrow if the leg comes back to us (don’t laugh, I’ll let ya know :) )
I read other RV blogs, and I was reading about another RVer who was getting repair work done to his motorhome at a dealership in Indiana this past weekend and they left the RV at the dealership to go get someone at the airport, upon returning to their motorhome that was parked outside the dealership, they saw that their motorhome had been broken into……..their motorhome had been broken into and the intruder was still inside……read about it by clicking here
After all the cleaning and repairing was done here, I put Jake in the bicycle basket and went for a bike ride. As for the rest of the afternoon, I made out some bills, made some phone calls and mailed out some postcards. It’s was a simple day, and pretty productive. Hope you all had a great day too! Nite Nite :)

Nice Easy Day…..

Hi! Well, today was a nice easy day. Today we checked in at the office (remember we arrived at the campground and got setup in our site late Friday night). So we all talked about how long we wanted to stay and all the other destinations we wanted to see this winter and we came to decide to stay in Yuma for 2 months! Don’t get me wrong, it’s nice to travel and see what else is down the road, but when it comes to settling down for a couple of months and enjoying the area and company around me, nothing makes me more happy! So we are here until Feb 4th, then we will head up to Las Vegas for a couple of weeks. So, what else did we do today? Not much, it was very very windy out. I watched some TV and do you remember the corn on the cob we picked up at the flea market……

Today was rainy and windy….I think I brought the Northeast weather with me…..The rain here is very misty so this is how we tell if it’s raining out…..it’s just a fine type mist that you can hardly see. I see that there are RVs around us with some minor awning damage due to the wind. It’s very windy outside and the wind stayed with us all thru the evening.

Ohhhh, dinner is almost ready…..

Even Jake got lazy today….I caught him falling asleep on top of the couch…..

This evening I went to Bingo at the Paradise Casino here in Yuma. We are staying off Exit 12 off Highway 8 and Paradise Casino is off Exit 1 so it’s not too far away. Bingo was from 6 to 8 tonight and I went with my neighbor, she’s alot of fun! I didn’t win, but she won $50 bucks! I’ll try again next week! :)
Time to go back to relaxing…..have a great night! Oh, we will be doing alot coming up in the next few weeks, we’ve got a Christmas Parade happening soon, we are going to visit Old Yuma, and there are some landmarks that I’m going to talk about! Thanks for checking on me! :)

Flea Market Day….

Hi! Today we went to the flea market here in Yuma. It’s a pretty big flea market that charges 50 cents to get in. They are only open Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. I’ve been to this flea market before and, like they say, if you can’t find it here, you really don’t need it. :) I’ve got some pictures for ya….. (Just for ya info: I’m going a little crazy with the camera, I hope you don’t mind all the pictures – give them a chance to download :) )

Lots of different vendors here…..

We bought some corn – they are 5 for a dollar!
This flea market is pet friendly…..

Lots of stuff to spoil your RV with…..

Okay, and spoil yourself too…….
There is a food court with a live band….they are great too! I could listen to them all day……

Want a slot machine??

Another happy customer…..
Want to learn how to cook??

This evening we walked around the park and I snapped some pictures of the campers around us. Everyone around us is in a festive mood….

Well, tonight we went out for pizza for dinner and stopped at Walmart. I needed to get Jake some more treats and pick up some postcards for my friends back home. It’s a tad cold here tonight for Arizona – it’s down to 54 degrees….I know my friends back home don’t want to hear that, and yes, I’m watching the weather back home too. I’m thinking of ya. Have a great night and I’ll be back tomorrow! :)

Yuma! And Snow??

Hi! I think I’m going to make this more of a picture blog entry! Hey, I’ve got internet here at our Yuma RV Park. So I downloaded all my pictures and found the best ones to post for you. Just give it an extra second to download them on your screen and I hope you enjoy them…..
When we left El Paso, this is what we were faced with……I left New England so I wouldn’t see this stuff…..and now it’s on the ground…..

The bicycles got their share of it too…….

See, it wasn’t just a little dusting either……

Well, the sun was coming out, so it didn’t last long…..so you think….. :)

This is I-10 in New Mexico……

And at 8am, this is what is sneaking up behind us……

We made it to Yuma that same day and the next day we went out exploring……this is what we found in Yuma…..The Foxy Company was putting together their finest veggies for you right there in the field on the side of the road……..

They pick, wash, pack, and ship right there from the field. After it’s boxed up, the tractor trailer back right up and is loaded right there on the spot and shipped to your local grocery store!

After we drove around enjoying the scenery, we stopped at the Quechan Casino (of course!). This casino opened last winter while we were here. It was quite busy today. I lost $60 bucks……

After we left the casino, we headed down the street (like 4 miles or so from the casino) and we went into Mexico to check out what’s going on today!

A festival was happening in Mexico. In case you are wondering, we park the car on the United States side and walk over the border. As you can see, the town is right there! And when you leave, you just have to show your passport to the border inspector and then you pay $5 dollars to leave the parking lot to the toll attendant.

The Margarita’s were flowing and they were all free…….

After the shows, we went walking around to the little shops……Everything here is negotiable…..I have a blanket I bought in Mexico last winter that was $7 dollars, I love that blanket and I wanted another one of another color, so I found a vendor who was selling the blanket that I wanted and he said (in his cool Mexican accent) as he points to the stack of blankets, “$12 dollars”. I said, “No, not $12 dollars.” He said, “What do you want to pay?” I said, “Not $12 dollars.” He said, “$10 dollars”. I said, “No, $8 dollars.” He said, “$9 dollars right now.” I said “$8 dollars right now.” He said, “Okay, pick your blanket.” So, I flipped thru the colors and found one I liked and gave him $8 dollars (exact change of course) :) and we were on our way. We stopped by the bakery next door and bought some bread for 30 cents a loaf. Yep, 30 cents a loaf! Good bread too. Very sweet tasting bread. Different than what we have here in the United States. But, anyways, we moved on and I think that’s all we bought – NO, I almost forgot, we did buy a couple of cartons of cigarettes for Dad. They sell the same exact brand down in Mexico and up in New Hampshire, they are $54 dollars a carton, and down in Mexico, that same carton (looks the same and everything) sells for $20.50. So we got some of those.
During the festival, they had alot of vendor tables out on the sidewalk giving away free stuff. Alot of pharmacies had tables out giving out boxes of free pills. Between the cut up English language, I think I understood, “This is for flu. This is Vitamin C. This is for menopause. This is for anti-depression. This is for heart burn.” And it’s funny because they were passing those out. I mean, you don’t go by the table and pick them up or pick up what you want, they are shoving them in your plastic bag you get at the beginning of the line! I had more pills than I knew what to do with, or wondered again what they were for! So it was time to leave and I juggled my bags to get my Passport ID card out (have you seen these yet, they look like a driver’s license) and got in line to check out of Mexico. It’s always an easy procedure thru the border and the inspectors just want to know what ya got (if you have more than 2 cartons of cigarettes on ya, you don’t have to pay tax on the first one, but all cartons after that, you have to pay taxes on them at the border. But we only had one per person on us). So I’m waiting in line and it’s my turn next and I’m called up to the counter. Mr. Inspector sees my bags and says to me (of course in perfect English), “What do you have on you?” I say, “I got a carton of cigarettes. A blanket. And a bunch of pills for free.” I knew if I had purchased the pills, I would of had to produce a receipt. He immediately looks from his computer screen to me and says, “Where did you get the pills?” I say, “The vendors were passing out a ton of them.” Hey, I was telling the truth – gulp! So he says, “You are only suppose to bring back one pill.” I’m assuming he meant “one box of pills” because that all I had was boxes and boxes of pills. I say, “Okay, so, I’ll pick one andddddd……” as I look around for a trash can. He goes, “Just go. Just go ahead and you’re all set. Just go.” and I hear a big sigh from him as I left the counter will all my pills that I forgot what they were for and I don’t really know what I’m going to do with.
We left Mexico and went to another casino (you knew that, didn’t ya!), and we stopped by the Paradise Casino. This is a small casino in Yuma. We played some slot machines there and then headed home again. Our friend here, next door to us, was with us all day today, she made us dinner tonight and gave me access to her internet router. She’s great company and alot of fun to be with too. That was nice of her. So after dinner at her RV, we came back to the Montana (just next door) and gave Jake a bath and tucked him into bed.
As for me….I unfolded my new blanket from Mexico and laid it over my comforter and I’m ready for bed! I’ll leave ya with some other pictures I took in Mexico. Have a great night tomorrow is flea market day and we are dining out…..check on me tomorrow! :)

Landed In Yuma, Arizona!

Wow! We made it to Yuma! Yippee! We get to settle down for a couple of weeks and first thing first – to fix our three-legged RV next week. Remember, one of our front legs gave out on I-495 in Massachusetts on the very beginning of our trip and I’m hoping we can get it fixed with no headaches. And if I see headaches with the service or warranty segment of repairing the unit, I’ll certainly be blogging about it in detail! :) I like to yap! LOL!

Okay, so we are in the RV park for now, at least for a few weeks to start off with then we either stay or we move on. The freedom of being planless (is that a word?)

Oh, we obviously don’t have internet tonight since we got here at 7pm tonight, plugged in, and just open the sliders. We will take care of setting up the rest later.

The reason it has been a long day is because we woke up this morning in El Paso to one inch of snow in the ground. And the local weather station said that I-10 was shut down in Las Cruces, New Mexico and sure enough, when we got to Las Cruces, we sat stopped on I-10 for about an hour before traffic started moving again.

But, for now we have plans for tomorrow all ready. We have a friend here we visit and what an angel she is! She made us dinner tonight and told us what was going on for local events and tomorrow there is a Mexico Festival across the border – Oh, that reminds me to get my passport out. So we are going to go to the festivities in Mexico and I will be taking my camera! I can’t wait.

If I’m lucky enough to catch an internet signal (I haven’t checked yet), but if I’m that lucky I will be adding a lot more pictures to my blog.

Well, this is my quick blog for the day, sorry if I jipped ya and you didn’t get your money’s worth, I’ll try to do better tomorrow. I’m tired after the 480 mile haul with the traffic tie up, so I’m going to feed Jake and hop in bed. I’m so happy to be here! Nite Nite!

Made It To El Paso!

Hello! Wow, what a long trip today! Over 580 miles covered in one day. We woke up in the San Antonio area to a 30 degree temperature and we got the wheels rolling at 7am knowing that we had a long day ahead of us. We watched the weather on TV last night and they mentioned the “S” word! The “S” word in our current area??? That’s impossible! I mean, isn’t that why we left New England in the first place – to get away from that stuff! So we wouldn’t have to see it in the first place!! Soooo not fair :)

Anyways, along with my trusty Blackberry (which I’m using now because, sure enough again, I’ve got no internet service at the Sunland Racetrack and Casino in El Paso), anyways, my blackberry has weather radar and I can also get a hold of my online buddies nationwide to see what’s going on around us weather wise.

So, temperature wise, it was not going to be a good day at all – the temperature lingered between 30 and 35 all day and sure enough, that wind was hitting us all day…..we plowed thru two tanks of fuel, but we knew we had to get out of Texas, the snow was on our tail…

There is no Nextel service between San Antonio and El Paso – I was off line for 8 hour due to this and the last thing that was transmitted to me via Blackberry was from a trucker a little north of us informing everyone that I-40 had a mandatory shut down due to ice from Texas into New Mexico. We stayed on I-10 the whole time from San Antonio to El Paso.

As I had no cell signal or internet service, I decided to live in real time and enjoy the scenery…..

I actually had a chance to drive today too…my dad gave up the steering wheel to me :) I drove this pick up and fifthwheel before and today was a nice and easy day for me to add some miles to the truck. We were going along and another fifthwheel RV traveler caught up to us. No, I’m not a slow driver, I was going 70, he was speeding. Anyways, I see it’s a white pick up truck carrying a Montana fifthwheel – the Montana must of been 7 or 8 years old – no biggie.

So THIS is where I made my mistake and next time, I will keep my mouth shut. I casually mention “Oh look we have another fifthwheel RVer behind us. Cool.” Now, let me just say that I don’t care what your driving, as long as it makes you happy. I couldn’t care less about what vehicle you own – whatever it may be – more power to you. Well, my dad don’t see vehicle ownership the same way I do. Nope, far from it…..

The pick up truck pulling the Montana behind us decides to pass me. No biggie to me. My dad asks me “What is it? A dodge??” I peek in the driver side mirror and say “Nope” and continue looking straight ahead where my eyes should be. I don’t care what kind truck the guy is driving. My dad on the other hand is getting a little hyper “Is it a Chevy? Is it a Chevy?? It better not be a Ford passing me!”
Ohhh lord….I sigh and I peek out the mirror again and repeat myself (knowing exactly what kind of truck it is) “It’s not a Dodge.” The pick up truck is in the process of passing us just about now and the couple inside waves to us. I meekly wave back and my dad points at it and states “It’s a Ford! A God Damn Ford is passing us!!” My mom is in the back seat and my dad looks at me and orders “You let him in, you stay up with him, and when we hit a hill, we are gonna remind him that he has a Ford!!” I personally don’t understand the competitiveness, but I got my direct orders, so I kick it up 5 mph more. My mom don’t like this idea at all and I knew she wouldn’t, so she takes advantage of the rest area that is coming up in 4 miles. She says “Why don’t we stop at the rest area?” This statement is probably the only 8 words that is gonna get me out of this situation. And keep in mind that we are in Texas, not too many hills around to teach the Ford a lesson.

So, my dad caves and says “Fine. We will stop. We’ll catch him, he’s gotta stop somewhere for gas.” So we let Jake out to do his thing and three minutes later we are back on the road – me behind the wheel still. We are mosey along and good ol’ Dad is scouting out rest areas as we scoot along on I-10.

Three hours pass by and we stop again to switch drivers and we are pulling out of the rest area and see the Ford zipping by on the highway as we are coming out of the rest area. My dad is at it again and says “There he is! All I need is one hill and when I get done with him, he’ll be trading that Ford for a Dodge!” As for me, I just don’t get it. But, it’s okay, the whole thing makes for a good comedy show and a blog posting! :)

So we trail the Ford for about a 1/2 hour looking for a hill and the Ford calls it a day and takes an exit and we whizz by and I wave, my Dad keeps driving…..

After the Ford episode, we have reached a part of Texas that had snow on the ground. Like, real snow, so I snapped some pictures of it. And when I got Nextel service back in El Paso, I put out a post to my friends that I am looking at snow and a 30 degree temperature. My New England buddies all came back with the same news of it being in the low 60’s! Like I want to hear that! And I’m freezing in Texas.

We are staying at the Sunland Racetrack and Casino tonight and let me tell what “luck” is. They have 8 hook ups here for RVs. It’s a “first come, first serve” and if you don’t get a spot, you are out of luck. Last winter we didn’t get a spot and had to dry camp in the parking lot here (it wasn’t freezing like this last year). Tonight there was one hook up spot open! 1 out of 8!! With all the snowbirds traveling thru, I couldn’t believe we got a spot! So we plugged in and turned the furnace on…..good for the night and Jake is warm and comfy.

It’s $10 a night here, so we went inside to pay and played the slot machines for a while. And now it’s about 9pm and I’m exhausted. I can hear the little electric heater next to my bed and I am one happy camper!

So, today’s question of the day for ya! You know what we drive. What do you drive? Are you a Dodge Diehard, a Faithful Ford owner, maybe a Chevy Committed owner?? Maybe you don’t care what you drive and what you drive you can afford? Even better! Tell me what you drive and don’t forget to tell me whyyyyy! :)

Off to bed with Jake. Got 500 miles to go and will probably do that over two days. We are heading to Yuma first to lock in a site for three months and then after the holidays, we are heading up to Vegas for a week or two. Have a great night! :)

A RV Park Off The Highway

Hi, We left Coushatta Casino this morning around 8:30 this morning and drove into Texas! Now, as big as Texas is, we are going to be somewhere in Texas for the next couple of days. And I know in some parts of west Texas, I get no internet signal or cell phone signal. I’ve experienced this last winter.
And I’m watching the weather now, the weather don’t look good at all. Snow is heading our way – at least one inch of snow…..who knows where we will be perched by then…..
Today, we parked a little early because it is super windy out and the direction of the wind is right at us head on. So, at this rate, we will be fueling up every day unless that wind dies down a little.
So, where are we now? We are about 70 miles or so east of San Antonio in a little town called Flatonia. And our adventure side came alive and we decided to park for the evening at a campground on the side of I-10. We’ve been adventurous before, but I don’t think we’ve been this adventurous. Well, we saw the sign to Flatonia RV Ranch…..well, we actually saw the RV park from the highway and we saw some RVs parked so we decided….why not park there tonight. We will try it. Oh, they have a website to this park http://www.flatoniarvranch.com/. So we checked in at the office and was told for 28 dollars, we could pick our own site. How nice of them…AND, there is Wi-Fi here and that’s what counts! And Wi-Fi means I’m here to bug you again! :) So, let me show you some pictures that I took today……

They shut down I-10 today for an unknown reason….I really didn’t see anything exciting or why they shut a major highway down…..but they diverted us off the highway on one exit and we went up the next exit ramp to get back on the same highway again…..

Alot of highways around us….neat!

Here’s the check in office at where we are staying tonight…..

Some pictures of the RV park that we are staying at tonight…..

So that was our day today….pretty uneventful…..I’m enjoying my hot tea and the heater right next to my feet since it’s freezing out right now and I keeping looking at the weather channel now….and it just don’t look good at all……might have to come up with a change of plans….HA! We don’t have any!!! :) LOL! Okay, I’m done. Have a great night and talk tomorrow! :)

Kinder, Louisiana

Hi! I’m blogging from my Blackberry tonight (not by choice), but I am happy to be getting a blog post out today. There is one thing that I can think of right now that makes time slip away….being inside a casino….we entered the casino at around 3pm today and couldn’t believe where the time went when it was 8pm and we were still in the casino. Glad I remembered to feed Jake before we left for the casino! Ha – we always leave food out for him anyways….

Let me back up a bit here. Last night we stayed over night at Hollywood casino in Bay Saint Louis, Mississippi and tonight we are staying over night at Coushatta Casino in Kinder, Louisiana. The distance between these two casinos isn’t much – about 300 miles, and I don’t even think it’s that much, maybe a little less. So you might think we didn’t get that far or we didn’t travel long, but it wasn’t an easy day of traveling.

The coast here seems to be getting a rain storm that won’t let up. Heavy rain and slow speed leads to a long and expensive day. Expensive because accomodating the rain was heavy winds which took a bite out of our fuel mileage. So, I’m happy we only went as far as we did. And since we don’t have a set schedule at all, we will let the weather do its thing and we will just stay out of the way.

After this current rain storm moves on, I can see from the radar that there is another one moving in eastbound from Houston. Today’s temperature sat around 46 degrees all day and right now at 10pm I can still hear the rain on the roof of the RV.

But all is good here and we are very comfortable. (Hey, it could be all snow, so I won’t complain.) We have a casino in the parking lot next door to this RV park (of course! Ha!) and sure enough a little shuttle bus transports us back and forth to the casino. I love it! I think I’ve found my new job! I think I want to try driving the shuttle bus here and carting all the gamblers to and from the casino. Many benefits to that job….No traffic! I wouldn’t have to leave the property to go play in the streets! I can put a tip jar out for all those lucky people who hit a jackpot. Such a nice and easy job meeting all kinds of people, I’ll take either that job or the one that spins the little white balls in the Keno machine…..anyways…. :)

So, we tried our luck at the casino here to no avail…we all lost a little bit of money and then stopped at the bakery inside the casino and I bought an apple danish to bring back to the RV so I could wallow in my loss of money with my danish. Jake wanted some, but I don’t think so little pal, supper time for you!

I watched a little bit of TV, listened to Obama and his big plans for our 30,000 troops, watched the radar weather channel, and here I am ready for bed.

Now, real quick, this casino is 23 miles north of I-10 off Exit 44 and there are plenty of billboard signs to lead the way, so yes, I would recommend this RV park and casino if you are passing thru….if you want more info on this place or have a question, email me at dpjake11002@aol.com.

It made my day today to see I have over 10 comments on my blog so far. Comments just absolutely make my day, so don’t be shy to leave one, two, or a few comments – or one a day! :)

I’m tired, so have a great night and I’ll be back tomorrow :)
