Here we are about to leave late Saturday morning for WinStar World Casino.  We were ready for a weekend of fun and we were prepared to win BIG!!  :)

We arrived and found a fairly close parking space and headed into the casino for some fun.  I was told by the security guard that I could take pictures inside but couldn’t use the flash nor could I take pictures of the machines.  I could deal with that because I was there to win BIG MONEY!

We were hungry for lunch by the time we arrived so we ate at Chips N Ales.  It was okay.  ~M~ had the chicken/fish combo and I had a hamburger.

This was our order number.  Now if you’ll notice it’s #27 and I was born on the 27th and more importantly 7 minus 2 is 5!!  This was definitely going to be our lucky day!!

Here are some pictures that I was able to take while inside.  I didn’t take too many pictures because being the high roller that I am I had to concentrate on the penny slots.

Well I wish I could write some fabulous story about how we dominated the slot machines and came home millionaires but alas we did not.  We did have a lot of fun and plan on going again soon. 

Before leaving for the day I was able to capture a picture of the WinStar World Casino water tower.  I know, I know it is a bit random but it is one of those weird things that makes me smile.

We stayed at the Comfort Suites in Gainesville. 

In general I really like the Choice Hotel chain.  I’ve always been fairly pleased with the rooms.  One of the cool things about them is that a lot of them have a free breakfast.  And at that free breakfast they have waffles.  Sometimes you can get waffles like this:

  2. I love that Texas-shaped waffle. And looks like you had some fun at the casino!

    I saw your comment on my brother's blog (myolderbrothers.blogspot.com) about the bag you saw in my Etsy shop (tartlemondrop.etsy.com).

    I just wanted to let you know that I'm offering his readers 10% off my items. And this weekend I'm also doing free shipping for everything.

    Thanks & have a great day!

  4. So did you win big? Did you play anything else other than slots?

  5. Nope, like I said in the post we didn't come home big winners. I was up by $50 at one point and kept playing. I know, I know, I should have stopped but I couldn't! All we played were the slots. Maybe next time we go we'll venture out into the card tables.
