Money, Native Americans, Nature, & My Brother

So, I need to catch you up-to-date but I'm tired as it is late at night.

Here goes:

• I took a trip to Cherokee North Carolina for Memorial weekend.
• I lost $300 in Harrah's Casino
  
  
• I bought jewelry made by the Navajo Indians, and yes, I was in Cherokee, North Carolina, not Navajo, North Carolina. I got a cool ring!
• I drove up to the Smoky Mountain National Park and hiked up to Clingman's Dome.
  

• My brother Ken and his wife Sherry came to visit me on my 35th birthday! We had fun. We grilled Fillet Mignon with a mushroom rub wrapped in bacon, grilled corn-on-the-cob, had some garlic mashed potatos, side salad, and fresh green beans. We played Outbreak and watched Chronicles of Riddick. They saw my new house and they said they really liked it. I'm extremely glad about that. :)

So now you're all caught up. Tomorrow I go to the Georgia Rennaissance Festival where several friends are meeting. I'm excited!
