catch up-1

Things have been crazy lately and I haven't had the chance to type it all out in a blog.

Las Vegas:
I just fly back from Vegas and boy are my arms tired.

I am very honored to be the Maid of Honor in my friend's wedding. I flew to Las Vegas to help her make sense of the nonsensical world of weddings. It was a lot of appointments and a lot of running around. Weddings are expensive.

The thing I like about going to Vegas with my friend is that I get to experience the Vegas of locals. It just isn't "The Strip", there is a more laid back, come as you are Vegas. I went to the newest casino called "M" The people watching was great.

The one lame thing though is that there isn't a lot of Non-chain places to eat. It is a vast sea of IHOP, McDonald's, Jack in the Box or the ever popular buffet. If you are really hungry, like you just got back from being stranded on a deserted island, I would strongly recommend eating at Hash House a Go Go. The food is great, but it sure is big. I watched a nine year old girl struggle with pancakes as big as a hubcap.

Pistol Packin'Mama:
One of the highlights of the trip was going out to Sloan Canyon and shooting guns in the desert. What a great stress reliever and I guess after all of these years of not shooting a gun I am still a pretty good shot.

I didn't take a single picture. I can't believe it. I was assured that I will be sent pictures of my Annie Oakley day.
