we visited the El Rancho Vegas 11 days before fire. Hit all casinos in your pictures Pam. Sure brings back great memories. For our 50th next year, I'm re-tracing all casinos that we visited in 1960, that still exist. We stayed at the Trop., remember first time I had breakfast in bed, room service was new to a 22 yr. old kid. I think our budget was 200.00, but that went a long ways in 1960. I'd give anything to go back in time to those day's. The shows, the fun we had. Two lane road, onstrip, you could drive right up to front entrance and park. One $ BJ, .25 craps, lounge show free, good drinks 1.00, good dinner 3-4 bucks, Main show room were free, maybe a 2-3 drink min. on, and on we went back every year 2-3 times. for 40 years., now to crowed, I prefer Lake Tahoe, we go twice a year for week at a time, and love it.
