Hello Steve:

Glad to see that you are planning another trip. If you are going thru Flagstaff I would recommend stopping at Twin Arrows Casino (about 18 miles southeast of Flagstaff) Nice new casino & hotel and they have some good beer and Indian Tacos. About 20 miles west of Albuquerque is the Route 66 Casino & Hotel and if you take I-25 north for about 17 miles there is the Santa Anna Casino with a new hotel. The hotel is very nice and reasonable they have a good free breakfast on the second floor. We like playing Black Jack there and the café has some good beer and Mexican food. There is also a neat little casino on the Fair Grounds in Albuquerque but they do not have any table games. And don't forget Isletta and Sandia.

Have fun and happy chipping. Looking forward to your report of the trip.
