This is Tina, addicted to slot machines and always buggin Steve to go gambling after work. If Tina has a nickel (5c) or a quarter (25c) lying around, she'll want to whack it into a slot machine. And she won't just stop at one either.....

Tina and Steve when to a casino called "Circus Circus" which has a circus theme (obviously!). At sideshow alley, Steve and Tina spent many dollars playing ticket machines (like Timezone) so Steve could win a mini remote controlled car. Steve also won Tina many stuffed toys (not shown here).

Steve and Tina, looking especially sexy, enjoying a Toffee Nut Latte (Tina's favourite) at a local Starbucks in Reno.

Steve with two workmates (Gio & Erika) from Mexico. Yes, they are hommies and Gio taught me to speak "American".

Steve collecting his end-of-season bonus. At least that what he calls it.

Steve with his tow bosses from the Ground Floor Foodcourt (Rich and Nancy). They were lots of fun to work with and possesssed many interesting character traits.

This is a Ford Monster "truck" up at the resort for a Ford festival that was happening. I thought it was my "end-of-season bonus". Damn!

Here is Fabs preparing for a big night out. Unfortunately (or fortunately for her), he only managed to use one of those items that night...

Here is Tina at the top of the Emigrant ski run. Ski was very brave to give this intermdiate run ago. However, she complained all the way down. What a view thought, you can see Lake Tahoe in the background and much more of the Sierra-Nevada mountain range.

Here is Steve also at the top of Emigrant, enjoying the beautiful scenery.

This is Steve and Tina enjoying a cocktail at the Saphire Bar inside Harrah's casino in Reno. It was a very fancy jazz club. We could afford one drink and then just soaked up the ambience.
