Sunday 3-25 We made a decision.

Which way should we go west or east?

When we started our trip we really didn't know where we were going and we still don't know where, but, we made a decision on which direction, we're going east. 

By deciding to go east we had to go across Texas, we started in Abilene Texas and drove 375 miles to Shreveport Louisiana. We drove Interstate 20 all the way because it was the easiest and shortest route. Larry prefers to drive two lane highways and scenic routes considering they're more interesting and you see more things. The drive through Fort Worth and Dallas wasn't too bad because it was Sunday morning. The road itself was very good until we entered into Louisiana. It was so rough it seemed like they had speed bumps in the middle of road. Last spring on the first day of our trip we entered into Louisiana via I10 and the road was so rough we lost a hubcap. Had to go the entire trip with a missing hubcap, drove Larry bonkers.

We didn't have any information about Louisiana so we stopped at the welcome center. It was very nice and the workers were very helpful and friendly. After getting some information we continued towards Shreveport. 

Larry knows I like to gamble, he found that the Horseshoe casino lets RVs park overnight in their parking lot.

Once we parked the Minnie Larry and I went over to the casino to check it out. The facility is very nice with cafes, restaurants, shops, motel rooms and a casino. The casino isn't that big but it has three floors. When you enter the casino you enter on the second floor, the third floor is where the high rollers play and the first floor is where the penny slots, nickle slots and other lower money slots are. 

Larry got me down to the first floor and we located some machines that I thought I would like. While I stayed to play Larry went back to the Minnie. I was there for about an hour and a half, I left the casino $8 ahead.

After dinner I went back to the casino and gambled for another two hours.I found some penny slots that kept me occupied, when I got back to Larry I told him I couldn't find the slots I played earlier but I found other ones. He asked me which floor I was on, I said I went upstairs, he explained I had went to the wrong floor, not sure how I got confused. At the end of the day I came home $2 richer. You're probably laughing but percentage wise I made !0 percent gambling for over three hours. I'm not a big gambler I just gamble for entertainment. I have fun doing it.

We had a long day of driving but it was fun.
