If you come to Las Vegas, the Fremont Experience is something that you don't want to miss!

Re: "Live" from our Southwestern Swing
 

Hopefully if you come to Las Vegas, you won't be as stupid as I was last night! We were playing at the 4 Queens downtown, and I had won $120.95 which I printed a ticket for. Then the ticket (I thought) came right back out and it said on the machine $$$ only. So I went to another slot machine around the corner and went to put the ticket in when I notice it said .20. Long story short, the machine took my $120.95 and gave me back a ticket for .20. I walked off thinking it did not take the ticket. Someone walked up to machine and cashed out the ticket 1 minute later. It was my fault for not noticing, but I told them at the 4 Queens that I would recommend nobody gambling there because they have thieves lurking!! Anyway, I am sure there are thieves at every casino--but this is a warning--be careful!

Well we are going to check in at the Rio for a few days and actually be vacationing instead of racing!

More later.

The Fremont Experience is indeed awesome, and the 10:00 PM Queen tribute is absolutely great for us old rock and rollers..

A few thousand folks, some of whom just might have been drinking a little bit, all singing "We will rock you" at the top of their lungs is indeed worth experiencing.

Larry & Patsy ~ If you get a chance drive out to the Hoover Dam and the visitor's center/museum there. It's really interesting and amazing to see how that was constructed.

I've been enjoying your pictures and commentary of your trip.

Re: "Live" from our Southwestern Swing

Re: "Live" from our Southwestern Swing
 

I figured your favorite place to eat would be PF Changs or something since you get to use two sticks. :D

Just "ribbing" you.

Patsy, one night try to go to Nora's. It's an Italian place that is good and low priced. It was recommended to us about eight years ago by Nicky "Jegs cook" and now we don't leave Vegas without going there. 6020 West Flamingo Road. It's off the strip but always crowded.

Well we have just been relaxing and enjoying the casinos the last couple of days. I haven't even taken a picture! We did try out the Blueberry Hill Restaurant yesterday and ran into Dic Geary there. The food was good. We have also tried the Buffets of Buffets for the last day. $44.95 for buffets for 24 hours at 7 different places. If you bought just 2 meals you would pay that much. We also went to see "The Rat Pack is Back". It was a pretty good show.

No, Dennis we didn't try out the zip line downtown. It didn't look like fun to me at all. I don't like heights. And Larry didn't know if it would hold him!

Well more tomorrow!
