This past week we made a couple trips to Fantasy Springs Casino. The first time was with Dave and Linda. The women went to play bingo and Dave and I played the slots. They have a good deal there. You give them $20 and get to play $70. I got out of there with $140. We went again last night with Dave and Linda and another Okanagan couple John and Molly, whom we also met last year. We went to their POM Restaurant where Tuesday nights is barbeque night. It's family style which I have not had before in a restaurant. They put the items in the middle of the table for every one to take from. It started with a huge salad and honey biscuits. Then they brought out platters of barbeque ribs and chicken, sliced brisket and sides of white cheddar mac n’ cheese, warm bacon-potato salad, homemade southern style slaw and jalapeño corn bread. For dessert they brought out a whole apple pie. Sort of a smorg at every table, except you can take everything home you don't finish. We have enough left overs we are getting together tomorrow to finish them off. My ribs are better but I don't have to make them for 70 tables. Thursday nights they have the same idea with pasta night. Do we dare? After dinner Carol, John and Molly got their Play 20 get 50 deal and played the slots. Someone left a few cents credit in a machine beside Carol so I started playing that one and got $15 out of it. Carol came out with about $40. As we were leaving I noticed a man playing slots and said to Carol that he looks like our lawyer. We greeted him and sure enough it was Peter Linley. He retired last year and bought a condo here, half a block away from the golf club he has been playing at for the past twenty years. Now he plays golf five days a week.
