Still in Solvang
We went to Fess Parker's Winery yesterday, 29th August.(That's Gladys and I out the front of it) For those of you to young to know who Fess Parker is, He is the actor who played the part of Davy Crocket" of the Coon Hat brigade "! Everything there was very nice and highly priced !! I bought Rick a bottle of Red that cost $21US,so the wines are'nt cheap either. After we left there we went to the Chumash Casino.When we walked into the Gaming area we could have been at Burswood Casino.People sitting at the same old machines like we have and about the same number. Perhaps Burswood is a bit bigger. I lost zilch. They didn't get any of my money 'cause I didn't play anything!! I don't think it's as impressive as Burswood, but it's very nice. There were beautiful things in the Gift shop to buy,but I was very strong and once again bought nothing.
While sitting here typing this there is a Woodpecker in the roof above hammering away at his Acorn. Apparently they bury the Acorn under the tile on the roof and come back to it when there is a little worm coming out of it. Clever little fellows, arn't they ?I also saw a Mocking bird for the first time the other day, I think the locals may call them Bluejays.
Thanks for comments received, bye now.
