…the wonderful wizard of Oz!
I love singing that song in my head when I’m headed out the door.
Dave and I are headed to a place that will not be named (just in case someone out there is a crazy deranged stalker and tries to follow us) for a birthday party and some gambling. Woohoo!
Dave and I met at a mutual friend’s house while playing poker, so you can imagine that gambling (responsibly, of course) is something we do when we have the opportunity. We like to play poker (he plays limit, I play no-limit) and craps. The last time we were in Tahoe, he won around $2,000 playing craps. Not bad, eh? Let’s see if we can’t win some wedding money this weekend!!
So I won’t be posting until Sunday, nor will I be reading all the fantastic things that you folks have to say. Wah. So how about you tell me if you like to gamble (responsibly, of course) and what games you’ll play at the casino. Craps? Roulette? Black jack? Slots?
This is a picture of where we’re going:

I won’t tell you the name, but it rhymes with Beano.








Have a great time, Trish!
I sing a song in my head when I get back from a trip: “Home again, home again, Jiggity Jig”. My kids think I’m weird.
I love blackjack and could spend all day playing cards!
Have a blast in the place that rhymes with Beano!!
I’m not much of a gambler. at all. Oh, I hope you haven’t left yet, but come stop by – I’ve added more to my giveaway…
hmmm..that looks oddly like this little town in nevada that i drove through last summer on the road trip…have fun and good luck!
This is too funny. I live in the place you show pictured. In fact, the view shown is similar to the one I see every time I park my car at the community college I attend.
My partner works as a poker dealer in one of those casinos. We met playing hockey together, but his family and I bonded over some really lively home games while P. was practicing his dealing skills. Its a great game to get to know people over – as you know.
Needless to say when I pulled up your post on my reader I just about fell off my chair.
I hope you have an awesome time!!
Trish? Are you home yet? How did everything go? I can’t wait to hear!!
