Visiting with my Brother & Friend Barb

Had a pretty nice day. Even if I didn't win at the casino, lunch was tasty -- and Barb won so all was not lost. I only had my phone camera with me so I didn't get it as bright as I would have preferred.
Came home and found my brother, Les, had come by to repair my backyard fence.  AND..... he cut my front and back lawns!  What a nice surprise.  He must do that on the side as his truck said: Grampa and Grandson Lawn Care.


The fence was coming apart in three spots and two areas were leaning pretty bad. A good wind would take them out. He got them all braced up and the nails replaced where they'd come apart from the post.  Nice solid brace too so I'm happy with that.






Lots of construction going on in the casino parking lot. I read online:


The Jamestown S’Klallam Tribe is moving forward with its long-proposed resort and anticipates having the first of three hotel towers finished before summer of 2020. When it’s all said and done, it will be “unlike anything the Peninsula has seen,” said Ron Allen, the tribe’s CEO. “If it’s as successful as we expect it to be, we expect it to be a destination resort.”
There are also plans for a spa, event center, RV park and a parking garage, though it isn’t yet clear when each would be built. That will be determined on the success of the first phase and the resources the tribe has available, Allen said. For now the tribe is concentrating on building the five-story tower that will house the hotel lobby and 100 rooms, 25 on each floor above the lobby. If it goes as he hopes, the hotel will be open six weeks before Memorial Day weekend in 2020.


And that's my day so far.
