Charles,

I'm sooooooo glad you are getting to go on a casino outing. That was a terrific offer, by the way. Can't wait to hear about your trip.

TnGambler,

Sorry about the sign in thing. It asks me that info each time after I clean up the cache, so I guess the cookie that was there goes away. Hope ya'll have a great trip. I'm anxious to read about everyone's travels. It's great weather for a trip anywhere this weekend!

TnGambler, I have been the I 40 route before, this is not the first time I couldn't get over the mountain, it happened a couple of years ago. I just felt that it would take too long and we needed to get on home and beat the afternoon rush (slow) hour in Atlanta.

I may have posted this above but when I got home I had an offer in the mail box from Treasure Bay in Biloxi and I am taking them up on it. One free...

Hmm, that must be why they've never offered me the Fairfield before. The weekend I stayed there, was a Hootie & the Blowfish concert, and it was really busy. I bet they use them when it's especially crowded!!!

Can't wait to read your report when you get back. I bet you're already on the road by now!

Lots of luck!!!!

Finally I can post again! For the past several days every time I tried to post, it would tell me I needed to sign in. I would sign in and it would go back to the sign in page. It would show my name like I was signed in until I would try to post, then it would disappear. Really strange. Reset my pass word and all. Oh well, it's working now. Mel, after reading your post, I called about changing to Fairfield. They told me they only use them once in a while and they were not using them this...

TnGambler,

Just another thought, but why don't you take your husband to the motel when he gets ready to leave and then you come back to the casino and gamble, and you'll have the car when you get ready to leave. I'm assuming you drive, of course. I've never heard of any problems up in Cherokee. And as most everyone knows, I frequently go to the casinos by myself and never have had a problem. Of course your husband might be like mine used to be (you know, the...

It sounds like just about everyone is going somewhere this weekend. I hope all of you have safe travel, and don't forget to let us share your trips with you via posts over here.

Karen,

I hope you are feeling better soon. I know longer trips maybe out of the question for now, but maybe you can get over to Four Winds or another nearly casino again.

I know going to any casino usually makes me feel better even if I don't win---well most of the time, I feel...

Linda: I am with you .....looking at old cars just does not do it for me at all. If I ran out of money in Cherokee, and after 'crawling the walls'.... I think # 1 I would see if the FREE PLAY machines are still there.... (last time I was there, they were remodeling the area, and I could not find them....), thereafter I would find me one of those comfy chairs, downstairs overlooking the creek... or in the room with the fireplace, or upstairs among the great carvings....and maybe read a...

They are having the Fall Cherokee Rod Run (old car show) in Cherokee this coming weekend. We will be at Harrah's from Thursday till Sunday and my husband will be going over to the Fairgrounds during the day but I will be staying at the casino. I might venture to the fairgrounds if I run out of money but I no longer enjoy looking at the same old cars over and over. He NEVER gets tired of it.

Enjoy the leaves, hopefully they'll still be pretty. Maybe we'll see you...

Karen, I am sorry about you health issues, I doubt if Claire and I ever get to go on another cruise. Its the pits, I get depressed sometimes. I will have to remember and tell her what you said about the leaves, shes just gone to bed, I am not going to bother her.

Charles...now I am so jealous. I want to go back to Gatlinburg soooo bad but not sure if my health is every going to let me.
Mel knows how much I want to go back.....I tell her that all the time! Hope you and Claire have a great time. People on the Gatlinburg forum I read have said the leaves are really pretty now.

Gambler, Claire and I will be driving through Cherokee on the way to Gatlinburg next week. I just imagine that we will be stopping in at the Grand and spending an hour or so.

If it were up to me we would be staying in Cherokee for two days instead of Gatlinburg but Claire loves the burg. She started going up there with her family back in the 50's and you know how tradition is.

The last time I went, they didn't have a room available at the casino either. They gave us a room at the Fairfield Inn by Marriot, which is directly across the street from the casino. They have a traffic light right outside their back door that goes to the casino entrance. It was the next best thing to staying at the casino. I did decide from now on that if I can't stay at the casino, I'm going to request the Fairfield. They have put me up at several others, but this one was...

Well I don't know what happen to the reply I posted an hour ago, but I just wanted to say I hope you have a great time - it should be beautiful this time of year.

I enjoy playing late at night in the casino too, but just think of all the money you might save by turning in a couple of hours early.

Carol, did you take your family to Longaberger since it is practically in your...

Hello!
That sounds like a nice get-away planned. I agree, it's too bad that you couldn't bet both nights in the casino hotel so that you could do a little more gambling. But, at least you will be there, and maybe hit a Jackpot! Hope you do.
Aww.....the train ride, and the pretty leaves. I sure hope they are putting on a good show for you. I just love this time of year.
Yes, it has been a little quiet on here lately.
My brother-in-law and his girlfriend were...

We are going to be making a trip over to Cherokee on Oct. 31 for two nights. I called to get our room and they only had Friday night available at the casino. I am not changing rooms for a two night stay, so I told them to just give us a room at the Quality Inn. They did with no problem. I guess I should be grateful that we never have to pay for rooms, but I guess we have been spoiled staying at the casino. I guess it just means that they won't get as much of my money this time. Hubby...
