What a Relaxing Day

Today was a great day. It was spent with my brother and sister in Colorado Springs. It was a pleasant day and it was nice to be able to relax, have fun, and just be lazy. We drove up to Cripple Creek, which is a small mountain gambling town about 45 miles from Colorado Springs. I hadn't been there in almost 9 years. It was exactly the same as I remembered it. The drive was beautiful as the mountains had just received about 8 to 12 inches of snow the previous two days. We had a nice lunch at one of the restaurants in one of the casinos, and we spent about an hour gambling. I played Black Jack and won $40. My sister won $40 too, and my brother won $125, but put it all back into the machines. Ugh! Then, we had a nice dinner at Fazolis with my neice and her husband and family, then went to the move "Last Holiday." It was definitely a fun day.
