She said yes, so I invited her into our mix. It wasn’t long before a pretty red head sat nearby and smiled over at us, so frequently that I asked if she was alone, as well. I didn’t mind as I always enjoy meeting new folks and making acquaintances. The two men sat next to me and soon indulged me in conversations, intrigued that I was a young lady all by myself. I sat at the bar and ordered a drink while two older gentlemen, were kissed by their wives who headed off to play slot machines.
It was Christmas time and I took a break from browsing a few shops on a Thursday afternoon, to stop inside one of the casino lounges. I was 21 when I learned the valuable lesson of never hitting a casino bar alone, especially at a top resort hotel.
