Reno & Keno

I haz a blog? No kidding!? This little hiatus has been pretty great, I highly recommend it to anyone getting the slumps. And it doesn't hurt that the sun is shining longer these days and I just got back from a little trip. Jon and I went to Tahoe to see my favorite band and made a mini break out of it. We went to Reno first to visit some of his family.

The main strip area in Reno.

If you ever find yourself in Reno, Peg's Glorified Ham and Eggs is a must! I love all breakfast foods, so I can find something anywhere, but Jon is a little harder. He got the corned beef hash and eggs and said it was the best he has ever had. I have never heard him make a statement like that before, FTR. (For the record!)

I loved all the vintage lettering on the casino signs. 

We headed into a casino for some Monday morning light gambling. Surprisingly, there was a decent amount of people there. I say light gambling because cigarette smoke is freaking disgusting and I can only handle so much and I'd rather spend my dough on clothes!

Keno was new to me. It was pretty fun despite losing!

And with the push of one button, that dollar was gone. 
Ok, thanks Reno, it's been real, we are ready for Tahoe now!

omg have you ever stopped at Boomtown on the way from Tahoe to Reno? when i did my thesis fieldwork we would go to the Denny's there and there would always be old ladies smoking and drinking and gambling....at 7am. So surreal and hilarious.

Yayyy! You're back!

This looks like a great stop! I don't really understand Keno. My grandpa always tried to teach me but I would end up just drawing all over the papers ;)
