    Hell yes! One of the most relaxing things is chilling in a golf cart with a cold beverage on a really nice golf course!

    I've never played a round in my life. I'll be the designated drinker.

    So back to the TR

    We all meet up at Aria for Brunch and find out Javier's is not open till 11:30am so we play some Baccarat and then some Roulette and Craps. Still not lunch time so we hit the slots and VP.

    Was pretty fun we are winning a little here and there. We finally go to lunch at Javier's. I'm from Texas so, this is not going to top the TEX MEX or Mexican restaurants in Texas but still it was OK.

    After Lunch we all try Craps one more time.

    We all go on a PSO and PSO and then I get the dice. I place the iron Cross and so does PT. I roll a 7 shit. I roll another 7 this is wipping out PT.
    I roll and the point is 6 PT has 100 in his hand and 100 on the pass and 500 odds. I roll and roll make the point and keep rolling.

    By the time I seven out PT has almost all his 10k marker back and I'm up from being way down and so the other guys. Lets say they are up mid 5 figures.

    We color up and move on.

    Should have call it the trip at that point but you know Vegas we are never satisfy with what we have and I end up donking it all back

    PT and I both said we are up 7k and should call it a trip. He was flying out tonight and I'm flying out the next day.

    We need to follow our own advise

    I did have fun so that is the important thing but winning money is more fun.

    I go back to the Wynn to get some rest and I play one hand of black jack for a yellow chip I win and that is it.

    The next day after playing Shadow Creek I hit the Wynn for one more hand of blackjack for a yellow chip and win so I end up with 2 yellow chips for the two days.

    Funny I should just play the table max on that one hand and be done.

    Then that would not be Vegas.

    Had lunch at Zoozacrackers and checked out. Had the Wynn get the Phantom to take me to the Airport.

    Getting spoiled with the Phantom.

    Had a great time. Meet up with some Friends Play some slots Vp and most table games and came home with more money than I left with. Not much more but still more.

    Growing up in farm country, those are from center pivot irrigation systems. The big ones are 1 mile in diameter, cover a little more than 600 acres. The full square mile would be 640 acres. The smaller circles are 1/4 section pivots, 1/2 mile in diameter. When I was younger and bored to tears on a flight, I would use them to get a guesstimate of the plane airspeed. Sit perfectly still and time how long it took the mile to pass through the window. Kids today dont know how to entertain themselves with all of the available electronics. Yup, get off my lawn.

    Very cool. Being from the big city I never knew what they were used for. I only guessed crops of some kind.
