One Headlight

Yesterday I went to Pala with my parents and Grandpa. We had lunch at the Pala buffet, which was pretty good. They were having a Chinese New Year theme going on there. Then we decided to drive over to Casino Pauma, which is down the road. It was much smaller, but they had a lot of penny slots so it was good. Then we went back to Pala because we were seeing The Wallflowers that night.

In the evening, we were sitting around in the hotel room, eating sandwiches, and my dad decided to go get some more slot playing in before the concert. So he goes down the hall and gets on the elevator and just as it is about to close he sees a couple hurrying so he stops it for them. They get on the elevator and my dad starts chatting up the folks in the elevator (He’s that kind of guy.) and he realized the guy in the elevator with him was Jakob Dylan, the lead singer of The Wallflowers. My dad told him he had all of his CD’s and shook his hand. He was so stoked.

Then we saw the concert and it was excellent. I do not have any pictures today because I forgot my camera. I took some with my mom’s camera but she is still enjoying her trip.

Today I am taking the day off. My plan was to sleep in, then get some stuff done around the house. However, I was pulled from my slumber early by the downstairs neighbor’s Philippine karaoke version of Let It Be followed by a terrible rendition of a Tom Jones song and the butchering of a Frank Sinatra tune.

Now on with the cleaning.

  3. What is a Mogwai? What ever it is it must be ugly.......That boy fell out of the ugly tree and hit every branch.
    there is no telling what we will meet up with on our NASCAR adventure. My dad said he will go on Saturday and he might go for a little while on sunday just so he can say he has been. Hey maybe will could meet up with one of the guys from ZZ Top......But at a red neck fest how would you know..there could be several guys wondering around with beards down to thier knees.
