well i had a little fun in the winter wonderland of northern VA. i got there and hooked up with my friend and we immediately headed out on the road to PA. PA the promise land of 26 drawings in a row. we wanted to take a big circle and see what the landscape looked like snow covered. while headed up 81 to harrisburg i forgot that it crosses west virginia for a tiny bit. i almost pulled over to spend my money in wv because it has 20 drawings in a row. then i thought of oregon and i said let's keep going to PA. we pulled over just north of hagerstown MD on the PA side. some little town called stateline and stateline didn't have any open stores i could buy a ticket. so further north we went by county road. we found a place and picked up a powerball ticket that is going to be good until april 23rd.

we came back through MD but my money is way short so i didn't buy a lotto there. i was in va a few days so i waited a day or two to get the next ticket. i wanted a VA megamillion but i didn't have the money for that ticket. i know my limits and i had to pass on something. well i did have money for a ticket and the winner was lotto south. i picked up a ticket for lotto south for 26 drawings and it is good until april 23rd. i was going to buy a VA megamillion ticket for 10 drawings but the teller couldn't figure out how to do it plus her english really sucked. she cranked out one ticket and was going to try another when i said stop. i will just pay for what i got and walked out with the 27 dollars in lotto.

my trip home was going to take me through the windy city. i knew the little lotto was up there over 10 million. i decided to save the rest of my money to get one at the airport. haven't been through ohare in awhile and i was willing to go through the security screening again to get the little lotto ticket. well when i get to the airport. my flight was on a weather delay to chicago. i didn't feel like getting snowed in chicago so i got routed a differetn direction to go home. unforturnatley my bags went one way and i went another. my bags went to chicago and got to my home faster than i did.

well i got only one number on the va megamillion. my next trip is taking me to the great state of texas. i am in the middle of the state. i get to play the megamultiplyer and the texas lotto. i just hope no one wins it before i get a shot at that 54 million. whoops just checked and someone picked off the pot at 57 million. oh well i can still use 4 million.

the next thing to think about is which is closer new mexico or louisiana powerball. well until next time and after my next purchase. which will be right here in my home state of washington.
