Country Girl or Country Bumpkin

Thank God I'm a country girl.....
Well, on Saturday it was more like a
country bumpkin.

My other half and I went for a drive. We
went to CdA and stopped by the park .
It is a beautiful park and a beautiful day
to enjoy it. Was witness to the start of a
wedding and Arbor Day meeting and planting.
Also a budding American Idol at the bandshell.

Then we left CdA behind and went to Worley,
stopped at the Casino, and there the country
bumpkin came out. I walked thru ALL those
rooms, machine after machine. The rooms winding
around and into another one and then another and
another. There must be a 1000 machines in all. My
other half tried two different machines. But had no
luck. I don't gamble.
I don't think of it as a sin so to speak. But I worked
hard to get the money in the first place, so flushing
it down the toilet (which is how I think of it) is too
hard on my nerves. See, I don't think anyone should
gamble unless they can flush $20 bills down the toilet
and not flinch. I can't. So I made a trip to the gift shop
to see what they had. Nice things, nothing I wanted,
but nice. Nice prices too. They did have a jacket
I liked. But $220 is too rich for my blood.. I told you
I was a country bumpkin. One thing I did notice is
all the sad faces. There wasn't one smiling face there.

We left the Casino after about 40 minutes if that,
and drove back up the highway. Deciding to go up
Highway 58, as my guy had not been there in years
and I never been there. It was a beautiful drive. All
of the country with the rolling hills. Sure makes
me glad to be a country girl. We sure live in a
wonderful area.The great NorthWest.
We went thru Spokane Valley and headed back
to Idaho. Really nice drive and we didn't use much
gas. Very enjoyable day.
