HOT IN THE VALLY SO HERE WE COME ARCATA

It was nice and cool on the coast, we made the trip to visit Fergie, an old school chum of Wayne's. It was fun listening to the stories of school pranks. We got there in time to go to dinner at Blue Lake casino, Alice's Restaurant, I was happy since they had Buffalo burgers. The next morning after breakfast of homemade blueberry pancakes, we introduced Fergie to Geo Caching, imagine that! One virtual was a mural in town, understand the bagel shop next to it is the best. I doubt it Fergie will ever find another cache but he enjoyed seeing what caching was all about.
Made the trip to Trinidad it is a quaint little town, I love sitting on the park bench watching the water. Fergie told us some old legends about the rocks out in the water. Guess what there was a casino in Trinidad and it was lunch time so off we go. Cher-Ae-Heights Casino was quite small there snack bar OK, but when we got our players club card we drew a card to see how much gambling money we got loaded on our new card. Wayne and I got $25. and Fergie $10.
Fergie took us to his Model Train Club. It was really interesting, and I took around 200 pix.....imagine that! The club members have put lots of work into there club.....two hours flew by before I knew it.

Guess what there is another casino in the area and it is almost lunch time so off we go to Bear River, I think I liked this casino the best, it was another small one they loaded $5. on our card for being new members. They had a nice little dinning room and on the menu was Dungeness crab sandwich I was in heaven. I would go back there just for the sandwich.

We had a great time, and Fergie spoiled us with corn chowed for a lite dinner, and in the morning before we hit the road he fixed up Blueberry muffins....yum-yum.

Glad to say an uneventful trip home and the closer to home the hotter it got and is. All for now B
