GUEST AUTHORS OF HARVEST STORIES AND THEIR ADVENTURES


A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO I STARTED ASKING GUEST AUTHORS TO SUBMIT HIS/HER’S HARVEST STORIES. (WHEN I WAS STILL DOING THE POD – PAGE OF THE DAY)

THESE STORIES ARE ALWAYS INFORMATIVE AND USUALLY HAVE A BIT OF TONGUE AND CHEEK HUMOR.
IT IS ALWAYS FUN TO SHARE WITH OTHERS, DIFFERENT WAYS OF HARVESTING, THE TRIALS AND TRIBULATIONS THAT WE HAVE FACED OUT THERE WHILE WE WERE HARVESTING.

A GUEST AUTHOR’s HARVEST STORY

TORTOISE ROCK CASINO TWENTY-NINE PALMS, CA

By Steve Gobel


This place is not where you'd run into it by accident. My guess is that it is 95% locals playing there. Late in the afternoon there were 2 poker tables going strong with nothing but stacks and stacks of green chips. Every player must have had several hundred in the game.
Not bad for a casino in the middle of nowhere on a Thursday afternoon. Joining the slot club got me a Spotlight 29 casino card (same Ownership). A $10 table games match play coupon, and $10 in free slot play. I hit the Pai Gow table and won the first hand. $20 up and I ran. One of the payout chips was a GO chip, and not in bad shape for 2 years old. Played a Video Poker machine for my free play and cashed out $7.50. Then hit a penny slot for the TITO and quickly ground down $1 to 1c. All in All a nice little joint to stop in if you're in the neighborhood.
