Caning Las Vegas - a trip report

The 2014 version of my Halloween in downtown Vegas.
Meets, Stumbles, Handpays and more.

VERY clever writing your TR in the third person!
Seems more factual and easy to read,too.

I always like the tips on the hotel rooms:Hang something in front of the A/C to fool the room sensors.
A wet towel makes a poor man's humidifier,on my pillow.

Most of the time,extra clothes and a pair of shoes is not taken back with me.
Expendable,secondary articles.
3 year old walking shoes don't get a plane ride back home.

I'm with you on the High Roller: I'm acrophobic.
Did The Big Shot at the Stratosphere. NEVER again.

I have used wheelchairs at the airport and in the casinos-great to play craps in.
Did Reno and 'Vegas in the same week with a broken leg. The rental $$ was reasonable.
Fingerless leather gloves work well.
Most places are wheelchair-friendly.

I liked those goofy costumes,downtown!
I'll assume the weather was in the 70's.
Thank you for the GREAT T.R.
Yes the weather was awesome most of the time. Love Vegas in the fall.
Thanks Dave.
Enjoyed your TR--worry not about the mobility difficulties, just what happens to us when we get older. Glad to see you didn't let it keep you home!

Great TR, great photos!
Congratulations on the $1500 hit...wowza!
Love the pics of all the Halloween costumes. People are creative.
The white clown and his big toothy smile...love it.

Thanks for a wonderful TR.
BTW, many of my friends use canes and like them a lot.
Remember, pride goeth before a fall...literally!!!

Use that cane!

Bred for size these barnyard fowl do not like to be called "mutants". DonDiego respects their wishes.
Very nice TR.
Thank you.

never had a/c that shut off at night without movement.
Had several that required a room key in a slot but never motion in the room.
is that a Harrah's thing?

Great TR as usal B4E! Nice hit on tha 1500, awesome .

Don't ever be too proud to use the cane, as mentioned betas the hell outta a misguided stumble and tumble, I know this first hand
Thank you for all the nice comments.

Yes...that is a Harrah's thing. The A/C only stays on with movement in the room. So it gets hot when you go out for the day and it gets stuffy at night. I stayed there once before and grabbed a maintenance man from the hall and made him override it. I did not bother to do that this time. You can stand it in the cooler months.....but I would go crazy in the summer.

OMG!!! Love that chicken thing!!! For real..that is how big HHAGG chickens are!

Yes....I know I need to use the cane more, it is hard to wrap your head around though.
Enjoyed your report Blonde4ever and congrats on the nice win!
