Spent all day just chillin’ out. Jack doing law work. I read this great little book, The Supreme’s Greatest Hits, about the Supreme Court, Obama, etc. An easy, interesting read. Learned a lot. So, overall a great day although some rain showers and very windy which limited the time we could be outside the rv. Took a long, long walk in between the showers which was great.
We had dinner at Mr. Lester’s in the Cypress Bayou Casino. Wonderful porterhouse steak for two. Too bad no dog along with us on this trip to enjoy the bone. Just like the last time we ate there, it was worth the ride just for the meal. By the way, Mr. Lester is the oldest member of the tribe that owns the casino - Chitimacha. We asked but no seemed to know why there are 2 casinos joined by a long walkway – Shorty’s which is open 24/7 and the Cypress Bayou that opens at 11 every day and is a little more upscale. The rv park is part of Shorty’s. We did notice along route 90 a lot of casinos that are within gas stations. We have to find out more about that too. Didn’t have the courage or time to stop in to see what that is all about.
We played poker on the computers in the lounge with free drinks and then Jack went crazy in their bakery/deli with pralines, doughnuts, etc. This was in addition to the leftover steak, mushrooms, and a plate of “amuse bouche" or "lagniappe" maybe in LA. Anyway it is a little something extra treat that included chocolate covered strawberries, pralines, and some custardy pastries. We could not eat these treats after the most yummy cheesecake I ever had. Melt in your mouth yet firm and creamy. The server said it was JUST cream cheese. There is more to that recipe I assure you. That meal was my last major carbohydrate splurge for a long time. They served 7 or 8 different types of rolls, etc with 4 herbal butters. To die for. I just could not resist a little taste of all of that.
