    This might have been the most interesting trip to Vegas I have ever had. There are so many words I could use to describe it. Here are a few

    Joy
    Pain
    Fun
    Angry (sort of)
    Hungry
    Full
    Laugh
    Drink
    Sun
    Rain
    Pizza
    Beer
    Friends
    Blessed

    I can’t thank @TriggerMN (and wife) enough for the invite to his birthday weekend events!!!

    The last 18 or so hours have been BRUTAL as I have had some Achilles tendinitis in my right heel lately and it was on fire all weekend from all the walking. After leaving Park MGM yesterday, decided instead of walking through NYNY I decided to walk outside and around the front. There are some weird steps that apparently I didn’t navigate very well and took a bad step and my heel just felt like it was on fire. I didn’t feel it “pop” but there is definitely something wrong.

    it took me a hour to walk to Luxor from there. I self medicated with alcohol, VP and food then crashed after icing my heel for a bit. Should be an interesting doc appt!

    came within $200 of even then lost all the $ on my Tito before I crashed to sleep.

    overall a great time with great friends!!!

    Last drink before heading to airport.
    Gambling sucked but great seeing some of my fave people. Back in June to take a stab at a couple of WSOP events. Good luck to everyone still here and those arriving soon.

    Lunch at China Poblano. Tbh, everything was a little off. The queso was ok, but texture wasn’t quite right. The quesadilla took forever to come out and flavors weren’t vibrant at all. They comped us some sopas since the quesadilla took so long, but they’re just not our thing. Guess I’m just grumpy today!

    Yesterday was pretty much a nothing burger, other than a great visit for dinner with @bebe and Mamacita. Going home today, but flight is delayed. Will catch up when we get home

    Picked up water at Target and eating this for a quick dinner. Probably won't check into Park MGM until 10pm. Ick.

    It may be a few days before I really get my act together to do a recap, by then you'll have two or three more trips under your belt, but I second everything you've said here...what a long strange trip it was! So much bad luck, @TriggerMN's room and car, your heel, my wallet, @Lousyatcraps poor gamble (ok, that one is typical!), 903 Brewers Munch Berry, etc. But so much fun and true blessings with good friends, to include, but not limited to, you and your better half, @TriggerMN and his better half, @Hoofy7 and her lesser half, @campie1988 and her lesser half, @bebe and mamacita, @Niteshade, and @44inarow.

    Once again so many thanks to @TriggerMN and Geotwink for hosting the get together.

    Hey Doug.....so I would have held the 4 to a royal and given up $62.50 for a chance at the progressive. Would that have been wrong?

    Ok, so I kinda dropped off the TR Monday afternoon or so. The Hilton Club room at Elara was awesome and I was a bit burned out, so hanging in the room while @MrsIrishDave slotted around a bit was exactly what I needed. She got a couple of nice hits at Aria while I zoned out.

    It was the last night for us and @bebe and mamacita so we did dinner together, but we'd all had plenty of high falutin food so we ended as we started at Nacho Daddy and it was an excellent choice. Great margaritas, great food, and great friends.
