    My Trip Report

    had a very nice trip, from friday august 15th, returning home after 6 nights on thursday the 21st.

    am having some trouble i will blame on my old computer on dialup, which is causing my screen to scroll after a few lines, so will try to summarize, and then post under the various topics.

    my impressions of the first two nights, at the plaza, are under a post and under replies to wxrrob's post in downtown hotels. after the weekend, we moved up to harrahs, and i must say how impressed i was with the customer service at harrahs this trip. i know it is not fashionable to like cet on this board, but harrahs treated us well, again.

    got back home with a little over 200 hundred dollars more than i woke up sunday morning with, with most meals and cabs also paid for with cash. however, the trip started on a friday, so was down some for the weekend.

    meals at oscars, triple george, dupar's. the yardhouse 3 times, still did not make much of a dent in the beer list, but i tried! grand luxe for the first time had a bad experience. ruth chris for happy hour, bouchon for breakfast, toby keith's.

    shows were improv at harrahs and olivia newton-john.

    if anyone has any questions about anything mentioned above, shoot. i will try to answer them as i do mini posts

    we have high speed at our business, but i choose to spend my time there on business, do the message board here at home. am trying to be nice blaming the problems on my computer, not so sure since these issues started after the board upgrade.

    rural montana, choice is dial up or paying for an individual satellite. 19.95 a month for the dial up.

    my wife does have a smartphone so if we need something fast we get it that way.

    one of the ways i keep the kids from moving home!
