Going with the G P's to the casinos and coast.

My Mom has been visiting from Texas. She hit it off with Olive's grandparents and they all decided to go to the coast for some gambling and ambling. We went along for the ride and had a blast.

I gambled $50 and lost it all but I did get a free cup of coffee and a lanyard. I'm calling it my first $50 cup of coffee mmmmmmmmm.

Fast Eddie is a pro driver and lifelong automotive guy. It was my honor to be his co pilot.

 I kept my eyes peeled for anything Fast Eddie should know about. The sky wasn't overcast, that is smoke from raging forest fires. Today the air is better in the van than outside.

 I also got to hear loads of family history as the eldsters traded stories.

i had fun making this.

Smoke ahead. What is it?

 Now my Texan Mom gets to dip her toes in the Pacific Ocean for the first time.
