Remember those USA Today travel guides whose writing put me hopelessly behind the S&G 8-ball? (Two hundred and thirty-five e-mails still unread!) Well, if you’re staying at a Hilton-branded property (soon to include much of Trump International), you can view them through an online portal called The Point. They are also destined for inclusion on Hotelme.com, at a time yet to be announced. Anyway, the first update looms near, so I’m not too many places and events from the first edition have to be de-listed … although Taylor Hicks is definitely “in” and the Flamingo Las Vegas wildlife area will receive serious consideration. Except for that “Quad” stupidity, Caesars Entertainment has played a good PR hand this week. As for Trump, my reckoning is that, depending on the performance of those first 300 Hilton Grand Vacations units, what we’re seeing is the early phase of a stealthy Trump retreat from Vegas, ceding the field to Hilton.
On a personal note, please get a flu shot about mid October, as you are too valuable to get sick again. I believe CVS is about the cheapest at $20-$24. Keep up the great work
