Headphones work better. Sound blockers. Cheap enough. Enjoy your trip. 

Thanks, I think I have those little orange plugs in a drawer in my bedroom. I will have headphones for my computer too. Thanks, hope you are doing well. 

My recommendationsmay also require earplugs. Dragon Spin,Mega Meltdown, 1000000000 Degrees! No need to play max coins. 

Hey sonnymac! I will look for those. Funny, my wife locks down on Super Jackpot Party. My Vegas story is we go to bed and my wife waits till I fall asleep, then she goes down to the Bellagio Casino and hits two $1500 jackpots in a row, and then comes back to wake me up. Super Jackpot Party nickle machine. 

Warren,, I carry several pairs of those foam plugs in my shaving kit for travelling. It's super quiet were we live (in the country)...they sure help. Have a great time in Vegas! ! 

Yep, those are the ones. They work well. I need to find them or buy more. Thanks, Steven. I really miss skiing, and we have tons of snow at Mammoth Mt., and my ski friend Kathy is always saying we need to do ONE more trip. Thanks Steven! 

Be careful and have fun. 

Thanks Addie, it's about a 3 1/2 hour drive. 

If you forget your earplugs, ask the Hotel Front Desk. I've recently discovered that they sometimes have them for guests just like those throw away toothbrushes. Not the greatest earplugs, but better then nothing. 

Have a great time, Warren 🙂 

Have a great trip! 

Thanks Jeannie, April, and Doobrie! Hugs to my good buddies! Hope we have decent weather for the trip. Flash floods can be interesting on the drive. 

Thanks Izzy! 

Well, just found out my house was being staked out to rob. Lucky, I was home, but they got a neighbors house. I wish I had been more proactive, when the person came to the door to see if anyone was home. 

Good drop!!! 

Wow, that's awful about the thieves. I hope they catch them. Can you provide the police a description maybe?  

Thanks John, Rose, and Draglist! Yep, Rose, I gave the police a good description. I have heard that those doorbells that have video and audio reply work well. I think it is time to get one. 

Good idea Warren. We were burgled once while we were out and it's not nice to come home to. Got some nice new things from the insurance though - lol! 

It happens here a lot, I can tell you, Doobrie. No one is safe. My wealthier friends have very elaborate systems for security. Some of them have been robbed. One of my friends got the doorbell with video tied to her phone, and she loves it, because she is gone so often, and has a house filled with "estate sale" items.  

Mine was a little thief. The police were pretty sure they knew who it was but couldn't prove anything. They think it was a boy who was in the same class as one of my son's so he knew we were out at work. This boy had knocked on our door the week before, supposedly to see if my son was in but he wasn't one of his friend's. He had got through a very small hole he'd made in the window. Amazing as all my neighbours were in at the time!
