Out & about in Yuma!

We went to Paradise. The Paradise Casino on the California/Arizona border. (they frown on you wildly snapping photos inside the casino). Paul & Dave headed to the gaming tables where they quickly made a donation to the local economy. Margaret & I went to the Players Club where we got our cards, good for $5 in free play at the slot machines. I picked the exciting Evil Knevil machine. Luckily I had no idea what I was doing & with Margaret's encouragement I just kept on playing. When my free $5 ran out, I hit the cash out button and my receipt said that I had won $86.80. Hey I know when to fold 'em. I just took my money and ran.



Then we had to take Paul to the Yuma Territorial Prison. Things hadn't changed much since we visited last year (though it was less windy, which was very nice). Margaret & I rang the big bell & we took Paul to the "Dark Cell", solitary confinement at the turn of the century.



Doesn't Paul look comfy and cozy.



At the end of the day it was on to Crazy Earl's Cocktails & Pool. We were in luck, it was karaoke night, with a definite Country Western twang. But when the singing was over and they started to play the "Hippity Hop" (that's what they call it in Anchorage) Dave suggested it would be a good time to head back to our motel and a night cap (or 5 or 6) & we agreed.
