15 Year Anniversary

Today was our 15 year wedding anniversary. We have been so blessed to have had fifteen wonderful years together. We thank God every day for each other.

As many of you readers know, I lived in Reno for about 10 years before moving to Alaska. It has changed a lot in the years that I've been gone and there are several new big casinos that were not here when I lived here.


We visited one of those new casinos, the Atlantis, this afternoon. We signed up for their rewards program and got $8 in free play which took us an hour or so on the penny slots to use up. We also donated an additional $10 before heading home again.


This evening we celebrated with what has become our traditional anniversary dinner of Lobster Thermador that we cook in the RV. YUM!


Tomorrow is the start of the Reno Hot Air Balloon Races. We are only a little over a mile away from the field where the balloons take off so we'll be able to watch them from our RV each morning. We do plan to go down to the staging area on Sunday though to be in the thick of things as the over 100 participating balloons make their mass ascension.


Tomorrow is also the first day of the Camel Races (yes, with real camels) in nearby Virginia City and we're going to drive up there to see what that's all about. So come back in a few days and we should have some fun pictures to share.
