Wednesday, Feb 1st

After a late night with the Canuels, it was an early morning, I think it was an hour or two after midnight before bed. Marg had to meet up with the ladies to go to Globe at 7:20AM, so she was up and about at 6:30AM. I had to leave for the golf course at 8:00AM, so we both slept fast last night. Marg had a great day at the casino and came back about $160 better off, after her costs of going and what she spent. I played golf with Wayne & Gerry and we had a great day. We were all pretty close in scores: 49, 50, 51. It was such a nice day that I wore the golf sandals from the first tee and they were excellent. No one won money today, although I ran what easily would have been the long putt, through the cup and it stopped about a foot away. Wayne drained a putt from the fringe that would have won as well, but he did not enter the contest for long putt. After golf the boys came back to our park and we played some crib and swapped stories. After Marg got back from her road trip & sharing the good news of her big win we went to the rec hall for hamburgers. They had one of the big burger events, where you pay $3 for a great cheeseburger and chips. A short walk after and I had to play poker. Had a pretty good night, we had two tables tonight, the most players we've had since I've been playing. I about broke even, Gerry Binger & played with the newcomers, 2 of whom are from Ft McMurray. Marg said she had a great time with the 5 ladies she went with and this is going to be a regular monthly event for them, so a fun time I guess. Good to see her getting involved in things she really enjoys.
