FRIENDS SURPRISE US

WE WERE SURPRISED WHEN TODD AND DI FROM PRAIRE DU CHEIN, WI CALLED AND SAID THEY WOULD BE OUT TO LAUGHLIN NEXT WEEK!

THEY GOT A FREE FLIGHT AND ROOM FROM THE RIVERSIDE RESORT AND CASINO, DUBUQUE TO LAUGHLIN.

WHEN TODD STEPPED OFF THE PLANE HE THOUGHT HE WAS STANDING IN THE EXHAUST OF ONE OF THOSE BIG JET ENGINES, BUT NO, IT WAS JUST OUR WEATHER ON THE LOWER DESERT.  HE SPOTTED A BANK THERMOMETER THAT SAID IT WAS 122 DEGREES.

ON SATURDAY NIGHT JUST A HALF AN HOUR BEFORE WE WERE GETTING OFF TO GO MEET TODD AND DI AT THE RIVERSIDE, COLE AND DAWN WALKED UP TO THE CRAPS TABLE.  SURPRISE !!!

WE HAVE NEVER SEEN DAWN AND COLE IN THE SUMMER BEFORE.  THEY ARE A COUPLE FROM BLACKSTONE RV PARK THAT WE WATCH PACKER FOOTBALL WITH WHENEVER WE CAN.

WE TOLD THEM TO MEET US AT THE RIVERSIDE IN AN HOUR AND THE SIX OF US HAD A GOOD OLE WISCONSIN VISIT.

DI, THANKS FOR THE WISCONSIN SWISS CHEESE, AND WE WILL SEE YOU GUYS ON YOUR NEXT VISIT TO LAUGHLIN.

COLE AND DAWN, WE’RE HOUSE SITTING THIS WEEK COME ON OVER FOR A POOL PARTY.
