Moved all of 11 miles up the road today to a small Indian reservation casino in Coachella - the pensioners next door recommended the restaurant and that we can stay in the car park for free. As we have been wanting to try some self contained camping in badger to see how it all works with no external power or water before straying too far from the dealer it seemed like a good idea
Outside its a long way from the lights of Vegas - squat concrete box in the middle of nowhere. Inside its disorientating lighting, hundreds of slot machines and a couple of poker and blackjack tables. But even early on a Monday night it is full of lab rats pumping dollars into the slot machines. And they smoke - the anti tobacco lobby in SoCal is pretty strong so its a real surprise - I guess Indian reservation trumps state and federal- my reservation, my rules.
I still don't see the fun in it though....
