The wife and I left Boston on a 3-month long "harvesting" trip in late February.

We drove to Atlantic City first(4 days). Then through Delaware, West Virginia, Tennessee to Tunica Mississippi(4 days). On through Louisania(2 days) to Oklahoma (3 days). Then through Texas to New Mexico (3 days).

We scouted each casino and filled our pockets with slot cards and other collectibles, such as pens, matches, bungee clips and TITOs.

Then on to Nevada. We had a condo to use for two months in Las Vegas, so we were able to visit over 100 casinos there. Visited a few other collectors and attended a casino collectors meeting.

Then on to Northern Nevada.. 3 days in Reno, 4 in Carson City and then Eastward on I-80 to Wendover for 2 more days.

Nothing in Utah or Wyoming, but we visited some riverboats and race tracks in Iowa, Illinois and Indiania. Eastward still until New York State where we visited Turning Stone and a few racinos.

Then home to Boston. We had driven 10,000 miles, and had harvested 3,785 slot cards from just over 200 casinos. (adding 209 new unique cards to my collection).

It took me 2 months to document the slot cards and still have not yet finished updating my trade list.
I hope to have that list posted on my website soon.
