We enjoyed staying at the Dunes (dod 1993), Sands (dod 1996) and Hacienda (dod 1996).
'Helped open Orleans in '96 and vowed NEVER to attend another casino opening due to mobs and traffic. Attended Aria opening in 2009.
'Having a HOT time in Vegas in spite of losing.

Wife and I got married in Vegas on Valentines Day 1988. We stayed in one of the bungalow suites out back at flamingo. They were not too bad. They had a heart shaped bed and a heart shaped jacuzzi. I do not think any of those buildings are there anymore. We spent 4 hours waiting in line to get our marriage license at the courthouse. It was a fast and furious weekend and one for sure that I will always remember.

Used to help my parents paste them in the books and it was a big deal when they were ready to redeem them and drive up to the redemption center. They still have the lamps in the living room that were bought with the green stamps.

Remember when the Stardust was still open and the bartender at the Garden bar could remember what you drink, even if you were only there once a year.
