A Harvest Adventure Story BY RICHARD “REGGIE” GUMMER
SOME PEOPLE HAVE COMPULSIONS TO GAMBLE, SOME TO AMASS FORTUNES AND OTHER’S, WELL THEY JUST LIKE TO WRITE STORIES. YEAH, THAT WOULD BE ME. I HAVE ALWAYS LIKED TO WRITE, NEVER WAS VERY GOOD AT IT; BUT I HAVE DONE IT OVER THE YEARS JUST THE SAME.
IF ANY OF YOU WANT ANY INSIDE INFORMATION ON ANY CASINO THAT I’VE BEEN TO, I WOULD BE HAPPY TO TELL YOU WHAT I KNOW.
REGGIE
SMITH RIVER CASINO IS LOCATED RIGHT ON THE CALIFORNIA AND OREGON BORDER ON US HIGHWAY 101. THIS IS REALLY UP IN THE FAR REACHES OF CALIFORNIA; FAR, FAR AWAY FROM WHERE THE AVERAGE VACATIONER OR TRAVELER VENTURE.
NANCY AND I WERE ON OUR ONE MONTH VACATION JUST PRIOR TO BEING MARRIED IN LAKE TAHOE IN THE YEAR OF 2007. IT WAS RAINING AS IT DOES FREQUENTLY IN THIS AREA, SO WE PULLED INTO AN AUXILLARY PARKING LOT, WHERE OUR RV WAS THE ONLY VEHICLE PARKED. (I LIKED THE EASY IN AND OUTS WHEN DRIVING THAT 32 FOOT MONSTER.) WE PUT ON OUR SLICKERS AND GRABBED AN UMBRELLA AND HEADED OVER TO THE CASINO.
MANY OF THE SMALLER CASINOS ARE BUILT LOG CABIN STYLE, AS I REMEMBER IT THIS WAS A VERY NEWLY BUILT (REBUILT) CASINO AND WAS VERY PLEASING TO THE EYE. UNFORTUNATELY FOR ME AS YOU INDIAN CASINO CHIP COLLECTORS KNOW THIS WAS TO BECOME THE LUCKY 7 CASINO WITH A NEW RACK OF CHIPS IN 2012. I WENT ABOUT PICKING OUT THE BEST CONDITION 50c, $1 & $5 CHIPS I COULD WHILE PLAYING BLACKJACK, AND WE ENJOYED OURSELVES VERY MUCH AS WE WAITED OUT THE RAIN. WE STAYED AS LONG AS WE COULD, HAD A BITE TO EAT AND GOT ON THE ROAD AND HEADED TOWARDS FLORENCE, OR.
I BELIEVE I GOT ENOUGH OF THE LANGWORTHY CHIPS TO LAST AT LEAST 5 YEARS, BUT THAT AREA IS ONE PLACE I WOULD GO BACK TO IF THE OPPORTUNITY PRESENTED ITSELF. IT IS SO GREEN AND BEAUTIFUL THERE…REGGIE
