Taking On America One Casino At A Time
This is the master plan. After I came up with the idea of traveling across country, the first thing I did was I went out and bought your typical “serial killer” USA map. Ya know, like the ones you see in the movies when agent Starling was tracking Hannibal Lecter and they find a map on his wall with the pins in it representing the dead bodies. Well, I have one of them now...on my wall and in my bedroom. You can imagine the explaining I have to do when I bring a date back to my place for the first time..talk about awkward...lol JK
Below is the original plan I charted for my journey. It shows you the city I will be visiting, the casinos I will be playing in (if any), and the expected arrival and departure date for each location.
I’m excited for this adventure and I hope you come along for the ride. It will be interesting to see how close I come to completing my charted journey.
Follow along and enjoy!
