Curtis Has a Vegas Problem

Some people who spend a lot of time in Las Vegas have a gambling problem. Curtis has a Vegas problem; he works to spend as little money as possible for lodging, food, gambling, shows, etc. This morning he spent time gambling in order to increase his points to get coupons for the dinner at the Garden Court Buffet in the Main Street Casino. He ended up getting enough coupons so that he got 8 of us in for the buffet by spending the equivalent of 2 dinners!

L to R: Lori, Neill, Myrtle, Curtis, Eileen, Aunty Michi, & Mom.

Some of the coupons he got were based on points Mom racked up with her playing. I also helped him log some points when I spent a whole $20 at one of the video poker machines; I probably spent 30 minutes losing that $20. I guess if you enjoy losing money you might as well get something else for it. Here's Mom putting points on her playing card.


Kahuku High School is on the Las Vegas news tonight! Apparently Kahuku played a game against a local team last night. That must be why we saw so many Red Raiders t-shirts in the hotel this weekend. There were also Baldwin High School alumni here for the reunion of the Class of 1964. In fact, their hospitality room was down the hall from us last night.

Happy Birthday to Aurolyn!
