Left Friday to New Orleans and got stuck in hideous 1″ snow fall froze air transport from Dallas Love. Took near 2 hours after re-boarding on to MSY to de-ice a bunch of 737’s. Always best late than sorry! Stopped at N.O. Harrah’s to register for a Samsung tablet giveaway next day and drove to Biloxi on a shut closed I-10 accident hour’s crawl. Back to shop in N.O at 4 PM Sat then back to Biloxi. Felt like Greyhound driver doing my route. Have our nice 1136 suite gulf view and a great host comped our $1400 flight and car and joined for dinner at Magnolia House Sat eve, Dorly said best filet she ever tasted so is extra special good very casual prime dining. Last eve we did Dungness crab ( any recall Freddie’s “Dung Crab” jibes?) buffet easy crunchy shell to gobble down bunch; I ate three whole in cleaned out in butter, and tonight hostess takes us to Jazzapie’s Italian for good veal ‘n noodles. No big wins but holding own again the house. I’d an hour Swedish massage, she a pedicure gratis. Life ain’t all bad. Leave MSY 6:05 Tue via Houston Hobby no plane change . 8
