We visited a local restaurant Tuesday night and I have to tell you about it.
TRUMPETS at Sun City Anthem, in the south hills high above the Vegas valley, is AWESOME! GREAT food, GREAT service, GREAT atmosphere, BEST VIEW IN TOWN! Located in the Revere at Sun City Country Club, about 15 miles from the strip, well worth the short trip.

From the inside:

There was a 2 week final plans announcement delay by Steve Wynn this week. Final financing is being arranged for the $1.6 BILLION project.

The New Frontier announced a delay in it's plans as well. The NEW tower that is to be added to the Venetian has been delayed as well. Previously announced delays include the NEW tower at Caesars Palace (the Coliseum is proceeding as planned, and was 'topped-off' this past week).

All heck will break loose shortly after Mr. Wynn's annoucement and the plan proposals will start flying. Remember what I said in my past issue column: 2004 is going to be a BANNER YEAR!
