We went up to Reno on Friday so we could go to the Bottle Show the next day. We had lunch at the Nugget in Sparks - I was hoping to have some BBQ at the new Mickey Gilly's but they are only open for dinner - but Rosie's Cafe was just fine. The place was pretty busy. We had dinner at the Western Village - the place was absolutely jumping. Maybe there is hope for Reno after all.
I picked up these two ashtrays. The El Capitan is in a sad state but when I ran into Richard Sari at the Bottle Show he said almost all of this type are pretty worn because the image is just a decal and not a pyro. I am still very happy to have it. Also got this nice Mesa tray - catching up with Pam...
I found three chips at the show that I didn't recognize so I bought them - turns out they are all from Montana which I don't collect - duh, traders i guess. I got several nice "trinkets" as Doug Saito calls them - one can never have too many trinkets.
and last but for sure not least, I got this great key fob from the Christmas Tree. I guess I may have overpaid a bit for this, but jezz, its the Christmas Tree for gosh sakes.
