Great Day!

Morning walked the Red and Assiniboine River trails with winter offshoot group of the Prairie Pathfinders.  A chilly walk but the sun was nice and the trail was good.  Only bad part is the path down to Raw Ice restaurant where a few slipped and I just about fell and strained my lower back and both knees.  That was at the beginning and it went away during the walk.  Not sure about tomorrow!  Ohhh and once again my winter boots gave me a raw blister - that's it those fairly new boots are gonners!

Warming hut outside has funny mirrors.

This is neat.  Huge river ice blocks cut out

and laid out as pieces of interest.

Someone must have scattered food as they

returned again before we disturbed again.

After lunch Edna and I travelled to South Beach Casino and Resort to meet my sister et al there.  It was awesome that we met up with Sylvia and Len when we arrived coming out of the casino.  Visited briefly then left so they can relax and I went to gamble and Edna kept me company.  We met up with Florence and Roy at the machines.  So far I'm ahead.  Now we're at happy hour before a rib supper with all!  I'm celebrating my first CPP monthly pension.

My newest jewelley piece plus a lovely red cardigan, both 25% off.  Well went and spent $20 gambling and cashed out at $22.15 - BIG SPENDER AND WINNER - NOT!!!  😁
