Carolyn and Earl Visit at WCC

Carolyn visits in shows quite a few times a year, she takes the best photos of the rabbits and the groomers.   It's a treat to see Carolyn's hubby Earl who only visits at Reno.   There's a secret: Earl likes a certain buffet!   Earl is a PhD in medical field, his works at UC Davis medical school in AIDS research.

Yummy Dinners during WCC

We spent three days at WCC shows at Reno.   After several days of posting photos of Saturday shows, we'll take a break to show the two dinners that Betty and Casey enjoyed at Reno.

On Friday night, we went Asian.   This restaurant occupies three store fronts that include Hong Kong style Chinese food, Vietnamese food and Taiwanese Bubba tea drinks.

Casey and Betty both ordered Vietnamese Pho.  

The restaurant is inside a strip mall type of shopping center, it is rather unexpected that the plum blossoms in front of the restaurant is so vibrant, so gorgeous.

    

On Saturday night, Betty and Casey decided to try seafood.   The name of the restaurant is called "Mr. Crab".   We ordered a pound of crawfish and an order of fish and chips.   

Casey is quite experienced in the southern delight of crawfish, put on the bib and ready to teach Betty how to eat the crawfish.  

Fish and chips is easy for Betty but the crawfish is a first.  Putting on the bib and waiting for Casey to take the lead to eat the crawfish.

Both restaurants are very nice, we'll be back to them again when the ARBA convention goes to Reno in October.
