We were up at the usual time and had our coffee. We decided to eat a real light breakfast. We had a coupon to eat lunch at the buffet for free. Hey we could not pass that up. About noon we headed to the casino to eat our lunch and it was so good. I’ll have to say that the food here has not been a disappointment. We will have to diet for the next year or two but while we are here we are not going to pass up the good food.
With all the free food and other free money to play on we have not spent that much money here and we have had a good time. Sherri told me that she has some more free meals coming next month here so we look forward to that.
Wally World had it’s Friday Morning Madness Sale. We had not planned on attending Friday morning but would wait until Friday noon to see what they had left and get what we wanted. Much to our surprise…there was just about everything left that we wanted so we bought it without the pushing and shoving that goes on during the regular sales hours. Some of the items they had cleaned off the shelf but one of the associates there told us to look around in some of the return buggies and we might find what we were looking for. Sure enough we found everything.
We found a 19 inch TV for Kris and his sister. We bought a Blu-Ray…what ever player. I have no idea what all that means but everyone said that you must have one. We found Sherri a picture frame player. She has been wanting one of those for some time and they had these on for $30.00. We picked up a memory stick for the player and a cutting board for the mount on the TV. “What,” you say…A cutting board for the TV mount?
OK here is the story on the TV wall mount. We changed out TVs and the wall mount for the old TV is very hard to take the TV down from. So the decision was made to change out the mount. The mount for the new TV was too small to mount to the wall studs provided for the old mount so I had to span them with a piece of wood…which I could not locate…due to the lack of lumber yards in this area of the world. OK so the wooden cutting board was used instead of buying a board. Anyone that takes my TV down one day may ask themselves what in the world I was thinking using this cutting board…and you will know the rest of that story.
After getting the TV mounted we fixed us some dinner and then watched a few movies rented from the “Red Box”. When the last movie was over about 10:00 Sherri and I both called it a night and turned in. Tomorrow we plan on getting some pictures down loaded to our memory stick and then trying out the picture frame player. I will bring you up to date on how that goes…
