Realizing tonight is New Year's Eve, and I that get some sort of a fresh start with 2024 tomorrow, I thought it would be good to bang out this final post for this trip, and leave this year behind me.The trip was not just a vacation, not just a Vegas trip, but a whole lot more. It was a coping mechanism, a pilgrimage, a ritual, a way of saying goodbye to places that meant so much to the Quad Queen ..read more

Day 9 Part 2 Thursday Dec 28, 2023 and I arrived at Orleans, got my room forthwith, and decided on Chinese for lunch.Oddly, coincidentally, astonishingly, and I can't stress this enough, I got the room 1814. And now all I can think of is "The Battle of New Orleans" by Johnny Horton.The Orleans is a lot bigger than it looks, some 1,800 plus rooms. I assume they all looked as 'gumbo jumbalaya ..read more

Day 9 Part 1 Thursday Dec 28, 2023 and it's my last morning at Wynn. One more day of vacation, then I get back to retirement.Sounds pretty good, but I think I should partly unretire and get a job this summer. Maybe Royal Canadian Veeblefetzer will take me back as a Senior Grommet Inspector.I slept well and woke at 6:00 am again, but I've got irritated lungs and a nasty cough. It's not from ..read more

Day 8 Part 2 Wednesday Dec 27, 2023 and after I made some good typey-typey for the blog, I sat for a bit, and then headed to the casino.In the first minute, I almost struck gold, hitting a straight flush, one off the Royal.I switched up to 50 cents and in 2 minutes, I was out. I had one more close call, but no, none, zero hands of note.After that, I had the doom feeling return bigtime.Have you ..read more

Day 8 Part 1 Wednesday Dec 27, 2023 and I've done so well this trip, I'm almost afraid to play and lose a bunch in the last 2 days!I enjoyed Terrace Pointe Cafe so much for breakfast that I planned a return engagement this morning. The food was great and the service was wonderful.Well, not to harp on it, but today's experience sucked. The food wasn't great and the service was awful. When I ..read more

Day 7 Tuesday Dec 26, 2023 and I'm enjoying Wynn as always, even though there's precious little video poker to play.Not sure why, maybe it's the various pillows that are different from what I'm used to, but I've woken up with a headache each and every morning. Sore shoulders too. Maybe it's the pillows and the button pushing. It's certainly not the quality bourbon.I keep meaning to check out the ..read more

Day 5 Sunday Dec 24th and somehow, about halfway through the trip, I'm only down a few bucks.Seems I keep losing it on video poker and slots and winning it back on video keno - although I have had a few nice hits on the VP. But the big hands are eluding me and I'd really like to get some Royals this trip!The day started very innocently enough. I'd done my blogging yesterday so I could relax a bit ..read more

Day 4 Saturday Dec 23 and I had a pretty good night at the Cal. I'm on a low floor but I wasn't bothered by any traffic noise.Quite often there are sirens to be heard roaring down Main Street.The Little Giant brewed me a nice cup of hot stuff, but I have to admit, I've been lax at pilfering condiments for the room. There's no milk or creamers and no sweetener. I drank it black because I'm a tough ..read more

Day 3 Part 2 Friday Dec 22, 2023 and once again it is raining in the desert. I hope it will rain quads.Just about every time I come to Vegas these days, at some point, it rains. It's a desert. It's not supposed to rain.It was a quick jaunt to South Point where I thought I'd play some full pay Boner Deluxe and kill a few hours until it was time to head downtown and check in at the Cal.I wandered ..read more

Day 3 Friday Dec 22, 2023 and it's moving day out of Luxor and down to The Cal.I had a solid 6 hours sleep and woke feeling refreshed. It's always better after the travel achies are gone. I fired up the Little Giant and brewed up some coffee to sip while taking care of my blogging duties.Before breakfast, I got all the packing done and sorted, and checked the folio. So far so good, only resort ..read more
