Vegas was Great!

Me and Tim McGrawView from our roomMe and daughter KatieMe and JackDerek and Katie

We had a good time in Vegas visiting with Katie and  Derek along with some of their friends I haven't seen in awhile.  Our view from the 23rd floor of the Flamingo Hotel was awesome..looking down to the gardens and pools. We watched the water fountain show at the Bellagio and  walked on the Strip for a bit but the sidewalks were pretty jam packed with people.  The traffic leaving Las Vegas on Sunday morning was heavy and we were lucky to be   going the other way. Oh did I say lucky??? Yes I hit a $1000 jackpot!

I'm going to close out this blog in the next day or two and I will start Road Trip 2010. I'll post the web address here for the new blog.

Leaving for Las Vegas in the morning! No lobster dinner I guess.

Birdbaths

Little tiny one

Here are some of the birdbaths I have made. The birds like the one made out of cement..just put the new one made out of flower pots out today so I don't know if they'll use it. Going to play 9 this afternoon. It was 72 degrees at 6:45AM...currently 84 and getting warmer.

Sittin' Here Watching Paint Dry

This is my project for the week. I'll post a finished picture tomorrow. Jack is playing 9 today....Went to the pool this morning and it felt great...about 90 degrees and a few clouds today. Vegas on Sunday! Road Trip 2010 in 15 days!

Getting Ready..Road Trip 2010

Jack and I are recovering from three days at The Festival of Life. Lots of standing for him...walking for me. Jack made some more reservations for after we leave San Diego ...Neskowin Oregon, Seaside Oregon, Elma Wa and into the Seattle area in late May.

I was really surprised by a light rain shower this morning but I managed to get the cushions off the patio chairs and under cover in time. Jack is cooking is famous Fish and Chips tonight!

Welcome home Dan and a speedy recovery.

6 days until Vegas!

18 days until we leave the desert

Stay tuned for Road trip 2010 coming April 21

Final Day Festival of Life

Today is the last day for us at the Festival of Life in Indian Wells. Every night there have been speakers, bands, BMX bike exhibitions....yesterday there was a free dental and vision clinic for kids, free clothing and  the usual vendors selling t-shirts and CD's. The entire event is free to the public. 127 churches in the valley contributed money to put this event on for three days. It has been well attended.  I am not a big fan of organized religion and I have not really connected with the speakers, but the volunteers and attendees have all been very nice and the atmosphere is pleasant. Jack and I have huge backaches.  :(

Vegas next Sunday!!
