Well, not quite a summer vacation, but a weekend anyway.

Saturday afternoon, Erin, William and I went to the Mennonite Clothes Closet sale at the Wheatland complex. We had the traditional Rollkuken and Watermelon, and poked around the garage sale that they always have set up. It was fun.

Then, Saturday night, I went to a bachelor party, which was fun. We started out at Marquis Downs, and bet a couple of dollars on the horses. I think I lost between $2.40 and $0.40 (I don’t remember if I bet on 5 or 6 races) From there, we joined the traffic streaming to the casino, where I got schooled on casino etiquitte, as well as Baccarat. After losing half of my $20 at the Baccarat table, I decided that it was less fun than flipping coins in the parking lot, and left that table. I then proceeded to more than quadruple my $10 remaining at the “Tre Card Stud” table before walking away up $24 total. From there, we proceeded to various bars, performing stunts along the way (not that I did this, but don’t try to vault a parking meter at 2:30 in the morning)

Sunday, Erin, William and I met Jason, Amy and Mya for supper at Kelsey’s. All in all, a busy, but fun weekend.
