1. Mike, Ed, and I strode into the Traditions restaurant and settled in. I ordered biscuits and gravy with two scrambled eggs, but our conscientious server pointed out that I'd get a better deal if I ordered the Cabbage Hill Scramble, an open face biscuit layered with sausage patties and scrambled eggs, topped with sausage gravy. The breakfast also included hash browns. The sausage tasted good, but I wish I would have asked our server if I could have this meal without the sausage patties. It would have been less rich and lighter and would have been the biscuits and gravy with eggs breakfast I originally thought of to order.
No harm done. I was happy with my food.
Maybe next time, however, I'll remember to ask about the no sausage option.
2. Around two o'clock, Mike, Ed, Terry, and I piled into Mike's Sube and rocketed up I-84 to Meecham, OR for lunch at the Oregon Trail Store and Deli, one of our favorite places to eat. I ordered a bowl of delicious ham and bean soup with a side of French fries. It was awesome. Not only did it taste great, but I took the opportunity, for the first time, to try out soup at this cafe and treated myself to an order of their hand cut and delicious French fries.
3. My luck on the casino floor hadn't been good this trip and I decided to play for a while one last time to see if my fortunes might change.
They didn't.
I shrugged.
I brought my time in the casino to an end in a pleasing manner. for the third evening in a row, I ordered a dish of Cascade Glacier ice cream, this time combining a scoop of Salted Caramel with a scoop of Moose Tracks.
I was really happy that I resisted the voice inside me that tried to get me to resist eating ice cream for the third straight evening.
Whatever slight disappointment I felt because of the losses I incurred spinning reels was blissfully wiped out by enjoying this refreshing and delicious ice cream.
