Boomtown KOA - Verdi, NV

Boomtown Casino
Went to Justin's apartment for a breakfast of waffles with apples and cinnamon.  It was sad to have to say good-bye, but it was time to start heading home...2,907.miles.  Our first leg sort of depends on when we leave, how traffic is, etc..  By lunch time in Benicia, CA, we have decided that we can make it to the Nevada border without too much trouble.  Over Donner Pass on I-80, a fairly familiar route. We pull into Boomtown and are sent to the very back of the KOA lot, right to the edge of a cliff, with a pretty nice view...we're happy!

After dinner I convince Deb to walk to the Casino, just up the hill.  I figure we have to bet something, so I slide $3 into the slots. I bet $.50 and loose it all.  Deb slides in, bets $1.50 and wins $45.  After a complimentary drink, and a few more bets that netted us about even, we went back down the hill in good spirits.

Tomorrow we will traverse Nevada to the Utah border.
