Crab!

After a day that included draining tanks (Forry), doing laundry (me), adding water to batteries (Forry), we decided we had earned an evening over at the Fort McDowell Casino. They have "all the crab you can eat" on Wednesday and Thursday nights. They have really improved their system. Instead of standing in line for forty-five minutes to an hour, you give them your phone number and they text you when they have a table free.

Since there was a good hour wait tonight, we went over to play the slot machines while we waited. Since we are such big time spenders, the $20 bill we start out with, is what we play with. But, it did pass the time until they had room for us. The crab has been really good this year and I think we've finally got a handle on how best to crack it. I usually eat my fill, then help Forry, who is a bit less dextrous, crack and strip the last of his.

I really wonder how many people they feed on their crab nights? There were still people lining up when we left. You see some people with so many crab halves piled on their plates, they can hardly see over them.

When we got home, we settled in to watch the Gonzaga game. We have been having intermittent power outages, but tonight we saw a flash outside and discovered that we had a bad short where our two power cables were connected (we have an extension fifty amp cord in order to reach the power pedestal as we are technically parked in backwards...). The last week of rain must have gotten the cords wet...

Looks like we'll be talking with a repair person in the morning...
