Another Long VP Adventure

We are gearing up for a two week Nevada VP trip. We leave Wednesday, flying from Buffalo to Reno via Chicago. From there, it's on to Harrahs Lake Tahoe for a five night, four day stay.

Then, it's back to Reno, fly to Vegas, and stay two nights at the Cromwell, two nights at Main Street Station, and five nights at the M, before flying back east to Buffalo on September 6.

As always, we are keeping our fingers crossed and hope to return home with our bankroll reasonably intact.

Here's to you not only coming back bankroll intact but some extra dough too OMT, best of luck to you and your special person during your trip.

The Mayweather-McGregor fight is this Saturday night so Las Vegas should be jumping but you will miss the fight crazies. I was there once for the Tyson-Bonecrusher Smith fight back in 1987 but I think these days those days pale by comparison.

How long is your pit stop in Chicago?

I just got back from Vegas but your trip makes me want to go back. I love Lake Tahoe just for the beauty if nothing else.

Have a great time OMT!

How long is your pit stop in Chicago? It's pretty short. We're scheduled to arrive Chicago at 6:05pm, and depart for Reno at 7:25pm.

If there are any problems at all with the Buffalo-Chicago flight, it will be really tough.

Have a great trip omt. In the late 90's we made a side trip from my sister's in Sonoma to Tahoe Harrah's and had a great time there. We rented a Crown Vic and drove the three plus hours from Sonoma. Nice ride and great scenery. Hope your trip will be as enjoyable as ours was.

Hope you have a lot of success. Enjoy Lake Tahoe as it is certainly one of the most beautiful places here in America.

If you hit something good at Lake Tahoe, try parasailing there. Well worth the money.
