We arrived at Camping World at 3:00 pm just as instructed. We only had to wait about 30 minutes for them to finish another Tiffen Motorhome ahead of us. Then they pulled us in and started work.
Meantime Sherri and I wondered around the store looking for something we could not live without. Sherri has been looking for some step covers for the outside steps and also the inside. She found some but they were too short and really not what she was looking for. Our steps are 29 inches so we wanted something to cover the entire step. One thing I did think about too is that my battery box is located under the inside steps so I would have to be able to remove these covers to access it.
Well that gives us something else to look for. We are also on the lookout for a recliner. We never have like the chair that came with our unit and have been looking for a replacement for sometime. Sherri found one the other day at Big Lots that was real nice but it was too dark so we took it back. Maybe we will run across the right one later. The one at Camping World was sad looking and we neither one liked it.
They finished up our oil changed in about 30 minutes and we were on our way to the casino. We did not hook the toad up to the bus…instead Sherri drove the Jeep and I followed her the 50 miles up the road. We could not see spending the time hooking that up in the 107 degree temps just for a short trip up the road.
We arrived at the RV Park about 4:30 and checked in. They have a special going on where if you stay 3 days you get $10.00 applied to your card to play on. Well I’ll take that deal. So the plan is to stay until Thursday morning and then head back to East Texas….UGH! OK we are not going to think about that right now. It is time to catch the shuttle up to the casino to win that money!
We indeed caught the shuttle and road up to the casino….but the winning part….well that is not exactly what occurred. I did come out about $5.00 ahead…by the way that is good for me. Sherri on the other hand was not so lucky. We do plan on getting our revenge tomorrow when we once again return to the scene of the crime…

We looked for recliners and the best we found was Lazy Boy... It comes in 2 pieces so it is easy to get into the coach. You can order the color you want too. I know it is pricey BUT it has a warranty and is built strong!
Have fun at the Casinos

We agree with Squawmama, we also got the lazy boy. Jim has gone thru 3 lazy boys in 43 years of marriage, that's not bad. If it breaks we've had them fix it for free. We even had stuffing come out one time and it was free. It's worth it.
Have fun at the Casino, we're at Hollywood Casino in Joliet, IL. No winnings yet.
Yep. I'll even chime in with a recommendation for Lay-Z-Boy. But, look to the Reclin-a-way style. (Same as Wall-away.) We bought a love seat recliner with that feature for our fifth wheel. We only have to pull it away from the wall by about 6 inches, which gives us about 2 inches of clearance when we recline back.
We too use a Lazy Boy recliner during the winter when we snowbird full time for three months. But we like the chair soooo much that we take it back out and put it in the house the rest of the time. Lazy Boy has some narrower chairs that fit in the space much better without blocking the door too much. And they have more neutral colors that match our interior better....Rod
Sounds like you have similar luck to ours in casinos!! And we also highly recommend a Lazyboy (not sure of this spelling...). We have one of their wall huggers and it works great!!
Good Luck at the casino. At least you will enjoy your mini vacation. Have fun.....hugs
