We had a fun weekend. My wife Donna got an offer from the Immokalee Hard Rock Casino/Hotel for two free nights and tickets to see the Village People and KC and the Sunshine band. Disco music is not my thing but I had a really good time. It was a lot of fun. The hotel is about a 2 hour drive from our house but the traffic was horrible. I couldn't get out of work until 5pm and had to drive during rush hour. The weekend only cost me the price of gas. The hotel even comped our meals. I guess all that money my wife puts in the slot machines paid off. She even won a little money.
Next weekend is much of the same. Donna got an invitation only offer to see Paula Dean on Saturday night. There is also a meet and greet with Paula Dean on Sunday morning at 11am where you get your picture taken with Paula and get a autographed cook book. I really didn't want to go down there two weekends in a row but my wife loves Paula Dean and I couldn't let miss this opportunity. We really like Paula's restaurant in Savannah, Georgia. The best shrimp and grits I ever ate was at "Lady and Son's" in Savannah.
Our niece Rachael watched the dogs while we were gone and she will be coming over again next weekend to watch them. The dogs love Rachael. Murphy is back to her old self now. You can tell she is feeling good now. I stopped giving her pain meds but she still has some antibiotics to take. I am so glad she is back to her crazy Jack Russel self! She still acts like a puppy in her old age.
