So far so good, Patsy.  I hope you and your son have a great time.  Best of luck!  And Happy Birthday!

Thanks Edso your so find.Never

thought I would get this old.

Patsy,  you play what you want to play and enjoy doing it.  Look what you've already done!  Lots of people truly enjoy slots, and that's what it is all about for folks like us.  My BFF plays ONLY slots and she wins.

 

For less walking, think about the Vanderpump, a Caesars property that replaced the Cromwell.  We stayed there when it was Barbary Coast, then Bills, then the Cromwell.  Elevators opens right into the casino (or did, might have been remodeled) and the place is dead center Strip.  I realize it might not be your choice since your son lost Diamond, but consider it anyway.  Go by there, look around and see if it would meet your criteria, and talk to them.

 

I'm looking forward to more reports!

Thanks for the update.  Hope you have a great time at Ellis Island, playing and eating.  Maybe sing some Karaoke!
