YEAH!!!! This afternoon Scot and I left for Traverse City for our first mini vacation since the birth of Skylar and Alysha!!!! Our plan was for Scot and I to have my birthday dinner and then meet up with our friends for a night of gambling at Turtle Creek.
Our choice of restaurant was Boone's Long Lake Inn. Scot got prime rib and shrimp and I got a New York strip. Dinner was very good. We of course had to top it off with a triple chocolate cheesecake. Not the best thing for my diet, but we are on vacation after all. 
Thankfully we were able to finish dinner and get back to the hotel in time to catch the 9:00 PM shuttle bus to Turtle Creek Casino. It was a very interesting and long ride to the casino because there was one local on the bus that would not shut up! I swear we are attracted to the weirdos. When we were about to pull into the parking lot Scot cracked us all up with this comment; "I can't wait to feel the felt under my fingertips." You would think he did this all the time and was a pro! 
The hotel gave all of us a $10 voucher to use at the casino. I was lucky and received an additional $10 for my birthday...CHA CHANG! You could only use the credits on the slot machines. We all had a good time trying to figure out the penny slots.
We spent 4 hours at the casino and I am happy to report that I was able to walk out with an extra $15. I wish I could have said the same about Scot. I forgot how much I love playing blackjack.
