Hey Fred, How far are the casinos from your chalet?

Win some dough for me will you? Actually we are not far from the Seminole Hard Rock Casino & Hotel in Tampa. They keep improving it and the casino floor is now huge. It used to be not much more then a bingo parlor. Now it ranks pretty close to the best of them. Have not been to AC in many years. Once after a trip north to see family , we stayed at Show Boat a couple of nights on the way home. Before the Casinos it was a great summer place. Used to go to conventions and stayed in different hotels each time. There were plenty of good places to eat. Captain Starns and Hackneys for example. Once the Casinos took over Carol & I would go to Harrah's or Showboat, which ever offered the best deal, like a meal coupon, show tickets, discounted room. Funny part is we are not "high rollers" at all. Maximum for us were the quarter machines. No tables, cards etc:. Yet they still gave us a room cheap and the above mentioned comps. ENJOY!!! 8-[

good night sweet dreams

Yes back to the old routine...

Good Morning and have a great day
