Your weekend Ghost Hunt?

Mysti!
How'd your weekend Ghost Hunt go? I'd love to hear all about it. I know you'll have a lot of data to go through, but when all is said and done email me let me know how it went for you all.

Oh Boy.... Yes, Lots and Lots of Data, but I will definately keep you posted on how everything went.
I hope you had a good weekend with your family.... I'll talk to you soon.

Yes! It was a worth while visit!
My sister-in-law loves to watch the food network so she fixed some yummy dishes for us.
We got to see my Nephew's new home. He and his Dad have worked on customizing the home for the last year. It isn't a "Model Home" for the housing developemnet that he lives in, but it should be! It was fantastic!
I also got to meet my 2 yr. old Great Niece "Emma" she is a Peach and she took a real shine to me! She kept saying she wanted Uncle Dave to push her in the swing. So we all had a great time!
The drive home went well too! Which was a great blessing to me.
Once home I took a relaxing shower, and a good nap. Went to the movie "The Break Up" ( wait for it to come out on DVD, it isn't worth seeing in a Theatre ).
I rented two DVD duds, did my laundry and was wide awake and bored at midnight. So I drove up to the new Casino in Emmetsburg, Ia.. I got there about 1:20 am, and found out it closes at 2am. Sh!t! I tried one slot machine won $50.00 and left.
If you are interested in going there word up! So far they don't have any directional signs up in town directing you to the Casino.
The Casino is called "Wild Roses", it's located on the east end of town, on hwy 18, I believe.
Sun thru Thurs. it's open from 8am-2am, and open 24 hrs. on Fri. & Sat. . It's a small Casino, but has room to grow into 2 upper floors. The Hotel isn't finished either. They only have one floor open.
They didn't have any fliers available on either the Casino or the Resort.
Also it's roughly 75 miles from Cherokee, and it seemed like a long boring drive there. I'm not sure if I'll go back, because it's such a small Casino, and it isn't open 24 hrs. on week days.
Plus the Handicap parking is a long ways away from the entrance, and I hate walking any further than I have too.
The other casinoes in western Iowa...Winivegas, and the River Boat, have handicap parking up close to the bldgs..

I'm glad your weekend went well, your great niece sounds like a doll...and I can understand why she'd love you, you have a gentle personality and kids are VERY smart.
I've been so busy with everything I have going on that I haven't even thought about going to the casino.... but Maybe after it calms down I'll go try my luck again... I hope I have as good of luck as you though. (I'm more apt to spend $50 and win $0 LOL)

Seemingly the overall comments I am hearing second hand on this new Casino is that the majority of people are losing, instead of winning.
With that attitude they will likely scare away their customer base.
you'd think they would loosen up the slots a little to draw people to the Casino with in it's early opening.
But that doesn't seem to be their intention.
I on the other hand just got lucky.

You'd think they would but from everything I've been hearing about this new 1 over by us they are the same way, everyone is losing.
And they said the floor host / hostess (the one's who bring your drinks ect) refuse to bring anything if it isn't an alcoholic beverage.
So people are frustrated about that also because they don't get soda's or coffee unless they leave their machines to get their own.
I'll save money for now if my chances are that bad and use it for other things...I've got plenty of other things to use it for now like
GAS....
