Stacey found out she would be going to Duluth, Minnesota to represent her law firm in an extremely important merging negotiation. When she received the memo she didn’t understand all of the details, but she was sure of one thing, she would do her best and be as professional and informed as possible because he had been trying without success to make partner for the last five years. As she drove home that day she decided to make this her final stand. If she didn’t return from the meeting with a great success and be asked to join the partners, she would begin looking for a new firm.

That night at dinner she mentioned the trip to her husband Tom. He froze for a moment and looked at her, amazed it seemed at the idea. Stacey felt pleased that her husband was finally taking an active interest in her career. However, as she went on with her final ultimatum, Tom interrupted her and asked her to confirm that she said Duluth. Yes, yes, it was Duluth, Minnesota where her final showdown would take place. Tom interrupted her again and announced that the Black Bear Casino was located just outside of Duluth and that they would have to stay there during the trip. Well, at least the truth was out. Of course Tom was not interested in her Stacey’s professional dilemma. However, it did mean at least that he would be joining her on this important trip.

As it turns out Stacey was extremely happy to have given up the company sponsored room at one of the fine business oriented hotels Duluth because she absolutely loved the huge windows in her room at the casino resort and also appreciated the toiletries from Bath and Body Works. Tom had a great time in the poker room and even came away winning. He was a pretty skilled Texas Holdem player and sat at a table every chance he got. In addition, the comedy night at the Cobalt Nightclub and Cabaret helped Stacey to relax and let go of the day’s stress. They also enjoyed the great golf courses and Stacey almost forgot she was there for a very important business meeting.
