Are they going to have around the clock burnouts in the casino?

We camped in the campground next to the chip one year, and besides 24 hour music that earplugs wouldn't block out, there was a burnout happening all the time (or so it seemed) I kept waiting to hear an engine grenade.

Morning everyone . . .

52° and maybe later into the low eighties.

72° -still!- was supposed to drop into the fifties. Had a good and quick thundershower in the evening.
