PERSONAL HARVESTING STORIES
FEATURED CHIP OF THE DAY
Two Featured Chips today
HARVEST STORIES NOTES[yh/]
A WANTED CHIP
LAUGHLIN, NEVADA
DON LAUGHLIN IS CREDITED FOR CREATING THIS TOWN.
LAUGHLIN, NV IS ANOTHER TOWN LIKE DEADWOOD, SD & CRIPPLE CREEK, CO THAT YOU CAN ESSENTIALY HARVEST THE WHOLE TOWN ON FOOT. IN THE CASE OF LAUGHLIN, YOU CAN DO IT BY BOAT. ALL BUT ONE IS LOCATED ON THE RIVER, AND THAT ONE IS THE TROPICANA EXPRESS PREVIOUSLY KNOWN AS THE RAMADA EXPRESS.
THE RUNNING JOKE ABOUT LAUGHLIN IS THAT IT HAS THREE MAJOR HOLIDAY’s THAT DO NOT SHOW UP ON THE CALENDAR. THE THREE DAYS THAT ARE CELEBRATED ARE THE THREE DAYS THAT THE WIND DOES NOT BLOW.
I HAVE MADE AT LEAST 20 TRIPS TO LAUGHLIN OVER THE YEARS, MANY TIMES BEFORE I WAS CHIP COLLECTOR AND MANY TIMES AFTER. I USED A CAR MOST OF THE TIME TO DO MY HARVESTING, BECAUSE I DID NOT HAVE TO VISIT EACH CASINO EVERY TIME I VISITED. IN THE EARLIER YEARS OF COLLECTING I STAYED AT THE “BELLE” AND IT WAS MY FAVORITE POKER ROOM. http://www.themogh.org/cg_chip2.php?id=NVLACB
HERE ARE SOME TIPS ON SOME, BUT NOT ALL OF THE CASINOS. THE ONES NOT MENTIONED ARE FAIRLY EASY TO HARVEST FROM, ALSO. THE RIVERSIDE IS STINGY, THE FLAMINGO IS EASY, THE EDGEWATER IS STINGY, PIONEER IS EASY, THE RIVER PALMS IS EASY, HARRAH’S IS EASY, AND THE TROPICANA EXPRESS IS EASY. I ALWAYS GOT ENOUGH CHIPS FROM LAUGHLIN, MOSTLY BECAUSE I KNEW I WOULD BE COMING BACK. …REGGIE
THIS WILL BE AN OFFERING OF MINE DONE ON A DAILY BASIS. MOST OR ALL OF THESE HAVE BEEN ON A PAGE A DAY, OR WILL BE IN THE FUTURE. THE PRICE THAT ACCOMPANIES IT WILL BE THE FULL PRICE NO SHIPPING CHARGES ON THIS CHIP. TRADE OFFERS ACCEPTED. INSURANCE WILL BE EXTRA SHOULD YOU WANT IT. THE SELECTION OF CHIPS FEATURED WILL BE BASED ON SEVERAL THINGS INCLUDING: UNIQUENESS, SCARCITY, BEAUTY AND CONDITION.
NOTE: See the Chip Guide for reverse side image and additional information… reg

AS YOU MAY HAVE GUESSED; THE STORIES I HAVE BEEN WRITING ARE SOMEWHAT OF AN EGO THING WITH ME. I LIKE TO WRITE AND MEMORIES OF HARVESTING IS WHAT I LIKE TO WRITE ABOUT.
I ALSO WOULD LIKE TO THINK THAT IN SHARING THESE STORIES, THERE MIGHT BE A COUPLE OF THINGS THAT YOU MAY NOT THOUGHT ABOUT WHILE YOU WERE OUT HARVESTING.
ALL OF THE STORIES CAN NOT BE STELLAR STORIES, AND THEY WILL RANGE FROM “HO-HUM” TO “R U KIDDIN’ ME”. I’M SURE SOME OF YOU WILL FIND SOME OF THEM SLIGHTLY AMUSING AND ENTERTAINING.
SOME OF THE REASONS THAT I ENJOYED HARVESTING IS THE LOCATIONS, THE GEOGRAPHY, AND MOST OF ALL I LOVED THE HISTORY OF THE AREAS I HAD TO GO TO FINDING THE CHIPS.
MY TRAVELS HAVE TAKEN ME THROUGH ALL OF THE LOWER 48 STATES. I ALSO TRAVELED TO MANY PROVINCES IN CANADA, MANY OF THE ISLANDS IN THE CARIBBEAN AND PARTS OF EUROPE.
PLEASE KNOW, THAT IN WRITING THESE STORIES; IT GIVES ME GREAT PLEASURE TO SHARE MY EXPERIENCES HARVESTING. NOW-A-DAYS MOST OF MY TRAVELING IS DONE BY PLANE OR BOAT.
I AM TRYING HAVE A GUEST AUTHOR ON FRIDAYS, WHEN POSSIBLE. THIS WOULD ADD SOME DIFFERENT TWISTS TO THIS FUN HOBBY’S HARVESTING TRIALS AND TRIBULATIONS.
I HOPE EVERYONE ENJOYS THESE SHORT STORIES FOR WHAT THEY ARE, A MEMORY OF PAST YEARS OF FUN AND RECREATION.
AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST, SHOULD YOU FIND A TYPO, OR A BLATANT MIS-SPELLING OF A WORD, OR TERRIBLE GRAMMAR, PLMK.
THANK YOU FOR READING MY STORIES…REGGIE
