Snap Jackson and the Knock on Wood Players...great time!

We left here at about 1645 on Saturday, thinking we'd head to "The Cellar" a bar in the Dini's Casino.  We were thinking the  concert started at 2000 so we'd have time to have a drink and some dinner before the concert.  Joe had told us he had some inside information the band was going to play about 1810.  There was a dinner going on about that time, and another band was supposed to play but we didn't know for sure so figured we'd have a drink and wait to hear from Joe.   

Sure enough the band was playing at 1800.  So we walked the two blocks and met up with Joe, his wife Stacey, Rylee and Joe's daughter, from Oregon, Danielle.  Had an awesome time!  The band was good and then after a bit, The Sextons came on and played, then at 2000 or so, back to Snap Jackson and the Knock on Wood Players.  They are a band out of Manteca and play great blue grass!  It was awesome!  Too much wine!  Every time I turned around my glass was full...Ken and Joe were drinking light beers and a great (too good) of time was had by all.

We had driven the cabover in case we wanted to just spend the night in town, but Ken was ok, so he drove us home. Needless to say we had no dinner Saturday night, so we went to Dini's in the am and had a great breakfast!  These people know how to cook and give huge portions!  The rest of the day was spent on the couch watching football and doing nothing else.  

We were going to have pizza on Saturday night, so we went ahead last night and made some homemade pizza! Yummy!  

This morning, (Monday) we got up and got ready to head for Reno, to see what's up with the tire for the Jayco..nothing!  They still hadn't submitted it for warranty!  It's been there since June 30th..So today they finally took the pic they needed for Jayco and hopefully emailed them.  Ken told the Service Manager we need a "loaner" tire and rim, which he gave us.  So ridiculous, took them 30 seconds to soap it up and take a pic!  Hope this warranty girl gets a good lashing from the Service Manager, Ken said he didn't look happy.  

We went by to pick up the oil filter for Adam's quad, oh wait they're closed on Mondays (we knew that, but forgot)..uhhh..

Then to Lowe's for some stuff and insulation for the bunkhouse.  Chinese food and then home! 

One day this week i'll probably head for Carson and get the oil filter..gotta keep Ken working on the bunkhouse.  

Actually, we're probably heading for Sand Mountain on Friday for a few days.  It's our Anniversary and we need to use the pass one more time before the 19th so we're ahead $ on it.  

Our friend Clif is stopping by on his way to CA from TN on the 20th..

Adam called earlier and said he is part of Homecoming Royalty..they have the game and then the dance the weekend of October 3rd..
