LVA's Stiffs & Georges bureau is on holiday in Cameron Park, Calif., for the remainder of the week. As I write this, I'm only four miles or so from the new Red Hawk Casino (which looks to present as much of a competitive danger to Lake Tahoe that Thunder Valley did for Reno) but our schedule of family activities hasn't included a swing past Red Hawk … especially not when one's eight-year-old nephew and six-year-old niece are in tow.
Regardless of whichever late-December holiday (if any) you observe, may it be joyous and bountiful, and may it augur more of the same in the coming year.
