Trip to Casino

Manuel has not felt good most of the summer but he has been wanting to go to a casino.  Yesterday, he told me he wanted to go to Coushatta since he felt good and was without fever for a couple of days and had no pain.  So I got on the phone and made reservations to go on a tour bus trip for an overnight trip to Kinder, LA.  We had to be at the bus stop at 5:30 am for a 6:30 am take off.  We will return tomorrow evening. 

We made two stops along the way so it was a pretty good trip.

We had two Lady Drivers.  This is one of them.  Did not get a picture of the other one.

It rained most of the way to Kinder and most of the way back.  We even got a little rain in San Antonio.

Here we go to have some fun!  Manuel did pretty good the first two hours we were there.  His  must have known why he wanted to come do a little gambling.  I came out even but we both had a very nice time and it sure was nice to get away at least for a little while.

I had told Janet Lambe we were on our way to Kinder as we drove through Houston.  By the time we got to the casino, Janet Bechard was texting us.  They were at the casino already and found out they were only a couple of rooms from where we were staying.  We made plans to meet and they came over to our room for a little while.  We then went to dinner and the played….

It was really nice to see Janet & Joe as we have not seen any of our friends in a good while. 

We also made plans to to meet the Bechards for breakfast in the morning before they head home.  Our bus will take off at 1:30 pm from the casino.  This means that we will go through Houston at around 5 pm (traffic hour).

Breakfast meeting with the Bechards at Café Grande!  Yes, Joe, Café Grande!!

We were in heavy traffic going home, as expected.  We ended getting home at 10:30 pm as we had two passenger stops to make.  We were pretty tired when we got home.  Manuel was exhausted but he was so glad we had made the trip.
