Katch up

Written on October 14th, 2018
The travel from Peculiar Mo to Galena KS( Downstream Casino) was trouble free and only a bit of mist now and then. We can stay free here with a players card which we do have. Well, Butch has one. Mine is outdated. Leo and Keri sent us snow pictures from Jefferson and Omaha. Their daughter Emily lives in Omaha, with her husband Joe and children Jorgen and Clara. We went into the casino and showed them our players card for our free night in the RV section of the parking lot and then promptly lost $28 in the casino so I guess you could say we do pay rent in a way. We have won in the past but not enough to balance it out.
Oh well. We had a good time with family Friday, Saturday and Sunday morning. Amanda and Brad's new home on an acreage is perfect for them all. They will greatly enjoy it through the youngsters growing years and beyond.

They will most likely be seeing many deer from now on.


Tomorrow morning I will be checking the weather because the nasty stuff is supposed to be ahead of us and behind us. We have decided to make a change in plans because the weather for golf at Llano Tx is not going to work because of cold and wet weather. We were going to meet Terry and Lisa Linder there but instead, we will drive on into Canyon Lake Tx on Tuesday and stay a few days at their place. Terry and Lisa put in an RV hook-up in their yard so friends can stay with them. The guys may not be able to play golf but the four of us can play some partners Cribbage. We all enjoy that game. So we will be heading to Trophy Gardens in Alamo TX after staying a  few days in Canyon Lake. It will depend on weather among other things. We are not due to arrive in the valley until the 20th so we do have some wiggle room and we do like navigating through San Antonio on Sundays. But then there is old antsy pants. So we will see how it goes.

As it turns out we have EXCELLENT WiFi at the Winstar Casino RV Park. The park has been leased to FunTown and is now called FunTown RV Park. It is still connected to the casino. The WiFi has never worked here before and I was not expecting anything this time either but what a pleasant surprise. We will be staying 2 nights here. The negative side of this is that their rates are much higher. $40 a night on weekends or event days and $30 on weeknights. They do offer back-in sites for $20 a night and that is what we are doing.
More tomorrow...
