Friday night i headed for Vegas, i parked my truck in the airport and you
need a credit card to get into the space. There was some one beeping their horns
and i thought it was at me so i placed the credit card on the dash.
Well i got to Vegas and my credit card was still on the dash, and since i only have
one now i had…none.
Got into town at midnight, waited in line until 2 am to get the car i had pre paid for
on ly to find out i could not get it since i did not have the credit card. I took a Cab to the
Hotel for $40 to find out that since my casino host did place my credit card number in her
room register i no longer had a room since they were full. I asked for a copy of my hosts
room register for me and i got the casino manager and showed him that it was not i but
their host that made the reservation. 3:30 i got a room.
I spent most of Saturday getting a car without a credit card…..i cleaned a whole bag
of garbage from the car which was a 1967 dodge or close to it.
At any rate it had 4 tires and air.
I got to town with $900 in cash and after paying the hotel room and security deposite and
the car and security deposite, the cabs, i had $8 left and the car rental place informed
there is no gas int he car but there is a gas station 3 blocks away and i better not go by
it. I bought $6 worth of gas and headed for Sam’s Town, my last $2 in tow to play poker and
use my line of credit so i could eat supper.
The good news is i had a great trip, 3 fire bet winners and paid for my trip
The moral of the story is, well there is no moral, just dont leave your truck without your
credit card.

BY the way, it rained hard Sunday night and when you put the brights on in the
1947 rental ,one went out and you could not see anything in the rain
