A couple of weeks back, I heard that the Gardens had opened its new casino building, so an evening trip was called for to see what surprises awaited.
The old structure, still known to most Californians as the Hawaiian Gardens Casino, has been reduced to rubble. Parking is still on the east side of the premises, but patrons have to walk under a long covered walkway to get to the new two-story building. Upon entering, I was struck by the elegant silver dolphins jumping out of the fountain in the lobby.
I exclaimed: "Quit hitting me, you stupid dolphins!"
Next it was time for a most important task: visiting the men's room. I was surprised to see goldfish in the lavatory sinks.
Then, on to the tables where I saw . . . nothing that looked new. So my next visit was to a cashier. By the way, the old casino had something like a half-dozen cashiers scattered about. This new one seemed to have only two cages, located side-by-side. I asked the cashier if they had any new chips out for the grand opening. "Yes, we have new $1,000 chips," she replied. Told her that was a bit steep, how about any lower denominations?
"Oh, yes, we have new $25's," she said, ruffling through her stock. "But I can't find any right now. Actually they look just like the other twenty-fives, but they are new!"
At this point I deduced I was speaking to Gracie Allen III, so I excused myself and asked a somewhat dour cashier at the second cage about new $25 chips. Told there were none.
Passed by a fascinating sign at one table, "English Only Must Be Spoken When Cards Are In Play." Felt like asking the idle dealer, "Por quë señor?"
And exited the building, looking for the volcano that used to be outside. Alas, it was gone, a victim of the construction. The only active volcano in California and reason to visit Hawaiian Gardens, and it was GONE!
Sometimes chip trips are just good for use of the men's room.

THIS WAS THE HONEYMOON CRUISE (TRIP) WE NEVER TOOK AFTER OUR MARRIAGE IN LAKE TAHOE ON AUGUST 5, 2007. IT STARTED OUT EXCITING ENOUGH, WE WERE TO BOARD THE CARIBBEAN PRINCESS IN PORT CANAVERAL (CAPE CANAVERL, FL)
AT THE TIME WE WERE LIVING IN TENNESSEE AND GETTING OUR FIRST TASTE OF WINTER. IT WAS VERY COLD WHEN WE DROVE DOWN TO FLORIDA FOR THE ONE WEEK CRUISE. WE STAYED OVER NIGHT AT A MOTEL THAT ALSO, PROVIDED THE PARKING OF YOUR CAR FOR THE SHIPS CRUISE IF YOU STAYED WITH THEM. THEY HAD A LITTLE RACKET GOING THERE, ME THINKS. BESIDES, THE PARKING THEY FED US BREAKFAST THE MORNING BEFORE BOARDING AND PROVIDED A SHUTTLE TO THE SHIP, THE COMPLETE PACKAGE.
I HAD NOT BEEN ON A CRUISE FOR SEVERAL YEARS, BUT IT WAS WONDERFUL, THEY HAD ALL THE AMENITIES I REQUIRED. OH YEAH, THEY HAD THE ON BOARD CASINO, OF WHICH I TOTALLY LOADED UP ON. CARIBBEAN PRINCESS CHIPS, I WAS ABLE TO TAKE OFF THE BOAT APPROXIMATELY: 30 $1’S, 20 SNAPPERS 5 $5 CHIPS AND ABOUT 20 $5 GRAND OPENING CHIPS. WAY TOO MANY CHIPS, AT LEAST; I THOUGHT AT THE TIME, BUT YOU KNOW HIND SIGHT IS 20/20 AND I REALLY DO NOT HAVE BUT A HANDFUL OF THAT SHIPS CHIPS RIGHT NOW.
AND TO MY DELIGHT THEY HAD THE LIGHTNING POKER ELECTRONIC TABLE. I SHOULD NOT SAY DELIGHT, BUT IT WAS FUN LEARNING HOW TO PLAY ON THE TABLE AND WINNING A COUPLE OF THE TOURNAMENTS THAT THEY HAD EACH DAY.
WHEN WE GOT BACK WE GOT A REAL DOSE OF WINTER WEATHER. EVEN IN FLORIDA THE TEMPERATURE WAS ONLY ABOUT 35 DEGREES. WE STAYED OVER NIGHT ON THE WAY HOME IN SAVANNAH, GA. AND I HAVE TO SAY IT WAY MORE LIKE ALASKA. BY, THE TIME WE GOT BACK TO TENNESSEE THERE WAS SNOW ALL ALONG THE FREEWAY ALL THE WAY UP TO GOOD OLE’ CLEVELAND, TN. AND WE HAD TO SHOVEL OFF OUR DRIVE WAY TO PUT THE CAR IN THE GARAGE. A VERY MEMORABLE TRIP, HARVEST & HONEYMOON…REGGIE

FACE VALUE CHIPS
This little “info-commercial” is to announce a new policy of the “Page of the Day”. Up to now my Face Value chips have been $5 and some Odd Denominations.
From this point forward; there will be face value chips in almost all categories of the “Page a Day”. For example(s): Caribbean Ones, 25c chips, States chips, 50c chips; etc. etc.
There will be 100’s of face value chips listed on the new format of the pages of the day.
This has become necessary because of several reasons.
• Economy
• Closed Casino Buy-Outs
• Over Stocked Items
• Lesser Condition Chip Offerings
• Higher Denoms Are Not Selling ($2, $3 etc.)
I hope this will have a positive effect on you the collector. As time goes by I will be making this happen more and more. Please know, that the postage for these face value bargains remains the same as all other chips. Minimum order amounts will remain the same.
If you are regular customer and/or are regularly getting discounts please know that there will not be additional discounts on face value priced chips.
Hopefully; this should create a little more interest in the “Pages A Day”. Most every group of pages will have a face value chips. You will have to check each group of POD’s out as they are displayed. Good Luck.

I will endeavor to provide these free personal chips shown below to everyone that makes even a minimal order. There are 30 in starting of other peoples personals, these were acquired by mistake or given to me by someone other than the sponsor of the chip. They need a good home, and to those of you that are thinking of having a personal chip made for the first time let me say it always a good idea. We have 2 or 3 people that make these within our club. This is always fun around a poker table, people are genuinely impressed with the fact that “you” have your own personal poker chip.
So let me elaborate a little more on the way you can own one or more of these chips shown below. First they are FREE to any one that makes a purchase. The bottom row of my personal chips (there are four), these are $5 each in very limited supply. Please know that the money will go to David Spragg’s maintenance costs on the Chipboard.
Also, if you do not want to make a purchase and are more into trading, I will trade any personal chip except the bottom row of my personals for any chip in slightly used condition; that is not older than 6 months, common, or special it makes no difference. Please know I will trade personals for personals that I do not have.
Hope we can find some common ground to get these nice looking personals into your hands. Thank you for your interest in our ‘Very Fun Hobby” Sincerely, Reggie
