    Didn't take your advice.
    Paychecks were early this week, so I have $$$ again.
    Spending a couple nights at Buffalo Bill's in Primm.
    They have a very nice CDL discount here.

    Edit:
    Up about $200 so far.
    After dropping $20 at the blackjack table I tried a slot machine.
    $20 in and $251 out, after about 15 minutes of play. Then I walked away.

    Cooling my heels at the Best Western just south of Kalispell, MT. Got here@ 2:45 pm (I don't deliver til 7:00 am tomorrow morning) and DID NOT want to sit in the truck (it's a C-Mart, NOTHING except junk food and beer) for over 17 hours. I walked into the motel and asked if they could do any better than the $87.00 (plus tax) I was quoted online. They said "$74.00 plus tax", so I took it. More than I wanted to spend but this is the nicest motel I've stayed since leasing my truck.

    17 hours vs. $74 bucks?
    I'd take the 17 hours in my truck.

    I got 2 nights for less than that, plus I won some money.
