    My Trip Report

    This will be our fifth year of going to Las Vegas for Labor Day. (We used to go to Rib CookOff in Reno).
    The usual cast of characters...(Kris and I)
    We got the car rented and picked it up last night (2018 Civic for $63 for 4 days).
    I took vacation today, so i could sleep in :D
    Just waiting for Kris to get home from work here in a couple hours, and we’ll be off.
    Staying at Cosmo, in a 1-bedroom Fountain View, with $350 FreePlay and $100 dining credit.
    Bankroll is $5000.
    We’re going to try a South Strip slot crawl tommorow..Starting off with Cosmo; then on to Aria, Park MGM, NyNy, MGM, ExCal and Luxor; finishing off at Mandalay Bay.
    Figure we’ll run $300 through Lightning/DragonLink games (as it’s our jam right now)
    Trying to throw some dice in there somewhere (if anyone is around; hit me up!)

    Just gotta water the lawn, do the dishes, take out the trash and clean the cat box in the next 2 hours :D hahahah

    I honestly thought of going over to MSS to clock machines...but that would waste precious Vegas time.
