Sept. 14, 15 & 16 - Sun, Mon & Tues


After driving around the front of the Casino and realizing that our phone had been turned off, we finally got Glenda’s message as to where they were parked in the Casino lot. After frantic waving and whistling from them both we managed to find them and get settled. It was very hot and humid so we changed and grabbed the bus to main buildings.

We arranged to meet at a spot inside in 3 hours for supper and then we all went our separate ways meeting up now and again. I had a real run of luck and got up to about $270 from $20 quite quickly but then proceeded to halve that amount almost as quickly. By the time we met for dinner I was down to about $160. We then met up for a fabulous dinner buffet and pigged out. After we again split up and proceeded to spend most of my winnings. Terry then had a bit of luck and seemed to be up by the end of the evening and I was down a bit from the start. We got home about 12 but didn’t get to sleep for a couple of hours due to traffic noise, etc. The next morning they started mowing the lawn about 7:30 so needless to say we didn’t get much sleep. We went back to the Casino to look at more of it and then have breakfast at the buffet again. Yummy!

We then said our goodbyes and split up. Terry and I went to a nearby town called New London to AAA for more maps, tour books, etc. and then decided to stay nearby as we were so tired. We got a PA spot in Old Mystic which was quite nice but no WiFi. I had a nap and Terry got a few groceries and then we just vegged out in front of the TV.

Tuesday started out with me giving the dogs a shower and then slowly packing up to head west. We drove through New York, New Jersey and into Pennsylvania. A very stressful drive on huge highways which much traffic, especially large 18 wheelers. It took 5 hours but we then arrived in the beautiful Pennsylvania countryside and stayed in a small town called Quakertown. We plan on staying for two days so that we can get organized once again.
Mike and Brooke left a message tonight and so I called them back. They got their package and loved everything. Felt it was like Christmas. Spoke to Kim also and we talked about Christmas in Mexico but don't think they are going to be able to come. Maybe Spring Break.
