[Vision2020] Moscow 195-?

[Janesta]

There were some really fun card games at various farm shops around the
county. First time I walked into one, it felt like a casino! LOTS of tables
set up for any kind of card/gambling game one wanted to play. Roulette,
Baccarat, you name 'em.. they were there. Big long tables set out with
alcohol, and food. Sometimes, a pig roast was held in conjunction with the
gambling event. Last one I went to was in '86.. My kids were getting to the
age where they needed weekend supervision.

My lips are *sealed*
