So Dad wants to go gambling...

Ain't no way in heck Kathy and I are driving him up to Minden to go to his favorite Carson Valley Inn! I think it's been about a year since our last drive up there and we still can't bring ourselves to do it.

Where to take him that's not a 4 hour drive? Oh, yeah...CACHE CREEK! I choose to read that "CASH CREEK". So that's where we'll be for the next few days...spending his money.

Just look at a few past winners! That's SO going to be us!







Geez, my new friend, Danny won over $16,000! In Nevada, any jackpot over $1,500 and you get the pleasure of paying taxes on it. I wonder what it is for California? Although, this is an indigenous people's casino, so is it considered part of the state? Or, maybe it's its own little enclave free of taxes and Big Brother. I must research this.

Anyhoo, it's been almost a year since Dad has been gambling...his eyes have gotten worse and he's not as quick as he was. Should be interesting.

I've been trying to give up the fire-water this week; I told Seester that. She said I couldn't quit drinking this week! Is that anyway to treat an addict? Guess she won't be coming to my intervention!

To be continued...
