Met some fellow local Rv'er's, enjoyed a wonderful lunch, came out ahead at the casino, and another very warm day.

Where are we today ?

    Another wonderful night's sleep windows open and only down to 55 f overnight. As usual up nice and early waiting for daylight then a nice walkabout the park and by the waterfront  about 1 mile and half.Forecast today was cloudy and alight wind 8 mph and did get up to 77f this afternoon. We choose this route home for the evelation and warmer temps. Lower elevation equals warmer temperatures and we are at 774 ft about sea level here.
       We had gotten a message from RVillage a social website for Rver's that we joined back in March of 2014. A busy and interesting network for all kinds of RV information. From a couple, David and Cheryl, that are part time rv'ers and happen have a house here in Grove OK. They welcomed us to the area and would like to meet us. They suggested meeting for lunch at the New Cherokee Casino just down the road maybe 1/2 a mile from us. Sounds wonderful so we set Sunday lunch and met them there, today was the day at a pre arranged spot by the restaurant. Meeting fellow rv'ers is always fun we all have so much in common even if we had different lives before. We all enjoy the good life.

            We snagged a table and got to know each other over a 2 hour lunch. What a super couple. Had a few laughs and a pretty good lunch as well. They all had the blue plate specials, a hot beef,gravy with mashed and veggies but my choice I think was the better one Catfish, fries, excellent hush puppies(that I don't usually like) and tasty coleslaw.
excellent catfish
the hot beef, but not off the roast
Cheryl and David
what a super couple
        Then eventually we parted company and hope to meet up again on down the road in our travels. While we were here got a players card card just because that's what you do with a new casino. Good deal . As new members we each get $10.00 free slot play. So heck why not?  We found  a couple of penny machines and tried our luck after about 45 minutes of fun, we ended up leaving there with $25.00 cash in our pockets spending none of our money, This paid for our lunch and we were still ahead by 10 bucks. Now that was a deal for sure and we got a free casino fix as well.
        Home by 2 pm and still quite nice and warm out side. Chairs out to read, a few walkabouts and enjoy this 77 f  afternoon until about 6 pm when it cooled down to 72. Time to head inside anyway, the cloudy skies and the breeze was staring to feel chilling.
       We have been in the area quite a few times over the years and visited some places we have enjoyed, no need to go back quite yet. One of our Favourites  is Har-Ber Village. So I looked up one of old postings to revisit. Have been there 3 times.
             Back in November 2013 when we were here visited Har-Ber Village what a fun day it was and great place to check out. For that posting Click Here  .
           What a fun day and still enjoying this excellent weather for a few days yet.
           Soon time for tonights supper, and after that wonderful filling lunch we will share some popcorn and an apple. Works for us.
           Thanks for dropping on by for a visit. Hope y'all had a great day as well.
