On our return trip from Maryland to Massachusetts recently, we decided to circumvent our normal 95/New Jersey Turnpike route and instead drove inland on a less trafficky path. In doing so it just so happened that, the Wind Creek Bethlehem poker room came into our sights. Just a quick stop off Route 78 past Allentown,…

We recently shared our trek through West Maryland including this short venture into West Virginia. If you’re headed out to the Holywood Casino at Charles…
