That sounds like the week that was. I was off the air too for quite
a while. Doc's was down, deader than a doornail.

I was glad to get home after all that. Highlight of the week after the picnic was being able to visit family, including cousins of mine I
don't see very often. We met for lunch at a casino in Niagara Falls--their buffet is free to new members of their "social club", reduced price for current members. We "joined" (probably will never use the membership again);

So did you have to pay anything to "join"...? Free meal is quite nice...
and you never know when you might have occasion to meet your cousins
there again... ;)

the buffet was spread over several stations (Asian, Mediterranian, American, desserts and maybe one other) with a fair spread at each. Enough to well fill us up;

Sounds quite impressive... ;)

we walked down to the American side of the falls afterward. For supper that night Steve and I split a one entree, no rice mall Chinese
chicken thing and got an ice cream each. Light, but after the buffet,
we didn't need a lot of supper.

I might not even have needed any supper, just a snack... :)

Hi Nancy,

I was glad to get home after all that. Highlight of the week

after the RHf> picnic was being able to visit family, including
cousins of mine I RHf> don't see very often. We met for lunch at a
casino in Niagara

Falls--their buffet is free to new members of their "social

club", RHf> reduced price for current members. We "joined" (probably
will never use RHf> the membership again);

So did you have to pay anything to "join"...? Free meal is quite
nice... and you never know when you might have occasion to meet your cousins
there again... ;)

It didn't cost anything to join and any time we want to go there again
for the buffet, it will be at a reduced price. Not sure how much off but
some beats none. (G) It was fun to go to the Falls again also. Stopped
in a souvenir shop for a thimble and walking stick shield (for Steve)
and went up front to pay for them. Heard a rustling beside/below us and
saw a squirrel had come in, jumped into a box of Reese's peanut butter
cups. He snagged one package, jumped down and under the counter, couple
of minutes later ran out into the entryway with a pb cup in his mouth.
Wonder how often he's pulled that off.

the buffet was spread over several stations (Asian,

Mediterranian, RHf> American, desserts and maybe one other) with a

If you went away hungry, it was your own fault. (G)

we walked down to the American side of the falls afterward. For

Tht's basically what we had. I couldn't go from end of lunch to
breakfast without having something more to keep the b/g at a good level.
