Thursday afternoon we drove over to Death Valley. I made appetizers for happy hour. Since we were supposed to be there for 5 days I had gotten groceries to make appetizers for the week. During the day everyone sort of goes their own way. One couple play golf (which we had planned to do also), a couple of others go four wheeling in the mountains looking for geo-cache, some read their books and relax in the sun. There is also the Furnace Creek Inn to check out; the restaurant and gift shop. In the village there is a general store and a small museum. There is Scotty's Castle and lots of sights to see in the valley. Everyone is usually back at 4ish for happy hour! I actually made three dips and only cut the tip of my thumb once! I made a spinach dip with lots of fresh veggies, a tomato cheese log with crackers and a hummus with pita bread. The onion in the log were a bit spicy but okay and the hummus was also so-so! But hey, I tried!
Yesterday we visited the casino to gamble, have lunch, and since gambling wasn't good, played bingo! That was the fastest bingo callers ever! If you bought a 4-pack they gave you a 4-pack free (because we were new we had a coupon). I thought no big deal - wrong! I had to put it aside! We wouldn't know if we won or not it was so fast!
Gotta go get ready for more adventures today...
