Shelton, WA

 We stopped at Little Creek Casino at the RV park on the side.  They have pull thru areas with grass and full hookups.  We were concerned about the noise with all the people and the highway right behind our RV, but the noise was not a factor. Actually most noisy thing near us was the neighbors furnace on the RV next to us.  We did see security drive by on occasion. 


We came on a Friday night and already the place was bustling.   I went into the wrong area at first and got lost in a maze of slot machines.  They were everywhere!  I was searching for the main desk and kept getting further and further inside with no clear path out.   With it being early in the day, there were people my age and older sitting at the slots with blank expressions on their faces, pushing buttons.  It looked very dystopian.  There were overhead speakers stating that someone won $100 dollars in a drawing and still everyone had the same foggy expressions.  Flashing lights and moving pictures were everywhere on the slots.   I finally had to ask someone for help and it still took me a while to find the exit because it was so easy to get turned around.

There was a beautiful dog area at the back on a mowed trail around a pond.   

The frogs were singing a loud choir each night and it was so much fun to hear!   In the morning there were several red wing blackbirds sitting on reeds and chirping a greeting to us.  Boomer really liked it there!  

We got to see Shandi Saturday afternoon and we stopped for some Teriyaki on the way over.   We got to see her new place and we went for a ride to a local frisbee course.   Shelton has a beautiful park that winds around the trees.


It was so good to see her and I wish we had more time!
