Good friends...

Last night we went to our friends house and had a great time reminiscing the good days when we used to camp together at the Calistoga Ranch Club in Calistoga. It is no longer there, has been replaced by a resort charging over $300 a night and some rooms are over $1,000!!! It sure wasn't like that when it was an RV park! They have been living here in Vegas for almost 12 years and really enjoy living here. It's a nice place to visit, but I think we  need to live somewhere else.

Today we went to the newest casino here called the M Resort & Casino which was beautiful! This is what they call a "locals casino" since it isn't right on the strip but further out of town. Gorgeous!!! Won a little, lost a little. My charter is I take what I can lose, and if I lose it, oh, well....but if I win...WOO HOO!!! Won $107 yesterday, but I think I felt bad about it and returned every bit of it today.

We will leave tomorrow morning early as we have to cross the Hoover Dam and Sunday is guaranteed to be a tourist day over the dam. If we don't get an early start, it could feasibly take hours to cross! So, we leave Sin City and our friends to venture to Williams, AZ and do the Grand Canyon on Monday morning and get ready for a weather change...from 80's during the day to 60's (will even get below 30 at night)!!!

We say goodbye to our old friends and will make them live up to their promise of a trip to Tennessee in March, 2011!!
