Another wonderful day has been allotted to us and we aim to use it. I don't know how just yet but we're not going to just lay around and pine away!

To the library is pretty high on my list then the long walk I'm sure will be pursued. The wind is to be between 5 and 20 mph which causes the walk to be more like a feat of self imposed torture but 'a little pain to thwart a larger gain' stays heavy on my mind.

The free buffet at the Fiesta yesterday turned out to cost us a bit more than we like but it wasn't too bad. The worst thing was the stop at the Magic Star to get our free 500 points for giving them our email address. I don't believe the points were worth that cost! Well, I did win before I lost.

It may be we'll visit Sam's Town this afternoon. If we can just eat the free buffet and keep our hands in our pockets it will be good. It would also be an unbelievable happening!
