After a terrible trip in January, we are heading back to Reno end of the week. I didn't post the January trip because the trip was so horrible.

I got sick in Reno and on the 3rd day knew I needed medical help. I had a natural royal at the Peppermill's Cube Bar and hit for $1,000. Even that didn't make me happy.

Went to Renown Hospital and stayed for 4 days. Perforated colon. Not my idea of a spa, fine dining and gambling.

The hospital got me stable enough to fly back to Raleigh. Had surgery and have recovered. What an ordeal.

We're celebrating our 60th birthdays and hopefully this will be a uneventful and a great birthday gift for us both.

Will write a follow up to the trip.

Sharon and Gary

Happy birthday. I'm sure all the casinos will reward you richly to honor this special occasion.

That January trip sounds horrible. I am sure this trip will make up for the bad time.

If I did my math correctly you will celebrating your 120th birthday. Don't forget the walker and cane.

Sorry to hear of your medical problems on your last trip. I know how that is. Two years ago my kidney stones attacked. I have a history of passing stones. Makes for a crappy trip.

I hope you have a fun, healthy, and lucky trip. Let us know how it goes.

I go to the Fireside only to meet up with people. Let me know and we can set up a time, if you want. Sorry, but they won't let me bring Charlie and Higgins because they get drunk and start fights. Shooters, on the other hand, welcomes them with open arms (yes, both kinds of "arms").

Hey, sounds like fun. I should have met up with you, John, long ago. You just may be my kind of guy.

If you guys meet up, you may want to post it on this forum. Who knows who may be in town at last minute while you are there. That Swede guy drops his hat and heads for NV at a moment's notice.
It seems like a second home for Jerry (and Alison when she can "sneak" away)..
Stan may arrange a business trip and sail into Reno with his 8 bucks to wager.
Hawkster and BC Daisie don't need much motivation to hit the town.
Mammoth Gambler: I ain't heard of him in months.

Shoot (ers), I need to quit lurking and post more. I feel like I know a bunch of you people here.
When's the next VisitReno meet?

I can't make it until my passport renews.I should quit dreaming.

John and anyone else who would like to meet, lets have a beer

You pick the day and time - we will be at the Pep (fireside) and available Friday thru the following Tuesday.

Let us know before we leave Thursday 4:30 a.m. EST. Yep, that's right - we're on eastern time.
