Sorry for the delay in posting this -
September 16 - Left Kanab for Las Vegas. Beautiful drive through the gorge along the Virgin River crossing into Nevada. Had a wonderful buffet dinner at South Point Casino.
September 17 - Good friends Dianne & Burt got us VIP Media tickets to Jennifer Ramos new burlesque show Exxcite at the Rio casino. We've seen her past show, Sexxy, a few times in the last couple of years and she never ceases to amaze. Local celebs all attended - Murray the Magician, Perez Hilton, John "Kats" Katsilometes, Khoree the Poet, and others I did not recognize.
September 18 - Had a fabulous lunch at a favorite of ours in The Linq - Hash House A Go Go. Later we met up with Burt & Dianne for football and hot dogs at South Point.
Here is Jill with their famous Chicken and waffles -
September 19 - Dinner with Burt & Dianne and Tom & Kathleen had a big surprise for us. A friend we hadn't seen in many years and her new husband, Joyce & Jerry, surprised us. Such a treat telling all the old stories from past vacations.
September 20 to 24 - We headed back to Georgia with stops along the way: 1) Twin Arrows Casino, Flagstaff, AZ, 2) Route 66 Casino, Albuquerque, NM, 3) Grand Casino, Shawnee, OK, 4) Southland Casino, West Memphis, AR, 5) National Indoor RV Center, Lawrenceville, GA.
Yes, we stop at lots of casinos along the way. You get to park for free, have fun, and have a nice choice of restaurants. One even had free ice cream.
NIRVC was a necessity for 2 reasons - we needed a new DEF head in the RV and it served as a good place to stay for a few days while we visited our favorite resort, Paradise Valley.
We went up most evenings to Paradise Valley for dinner, poker, bingo, and good friends that we have missed.
Finally on September 30 we returned to our beautiful home in The Woods in Land O Lakes, Florida.
Over the last few months we drove 7990 miles on the RV (about 28 stops along the way) and 6640 miles in the Jeep.
It's funny that most people go on vacation to relax. It seems like we never stopped moving. There were never any arguments between the couples even though we had never travelled together. We respected each other and gave space where needed.
