Flashes from Vegas . . .

It has been a busy week. So many things to do and see, the in-laws are in town and we have had a blast. As you know, we went to Las Vegas. As usual, we had a great time. Nothing out of the norm, as far as Vegas goes. We stayed up late, gambled, ate and had many laughs. Here are a few of the sights and sounds we came across.



























Last night, we went and got our Holiday tree. It is so nice and it has already started making our home more festive, and we have not even started to decorate the tree yet!

I hope you are all doing well and enjoying life too. May all your storms be weathered and all that is good get better.

I love that first shot...the lonely desert highway. As much as I'd never want to live there, I do think it's beautiful!

I've never thought of going to Vegas at Christmas but I bet the decor is fabulous. Love the shot with the amaryllis!

Lewis, - I love the desert too. It is so peaceful.

David, - yes, there was quite abit of decoration. The Bellagio and Palazzo seemed to have the most decoration.

Christopher, - Thank you.

Jim, - We usually stay at Harrah's or Caesars Palace. Have stayed at The Venetian, it is a beautiful hotel too.

Those pics are great... Almost makes me want to plan a trip to Vegas (a place I have gone out of my way to avoid for no justifiable reason)

Laurie, - That would be funny and great. How fun would that be?

Dantallion, - Las Vegas is a fun place. Plus, if you wish, there is much more than gambling.

Beautiful photos that you have captured. It is soooo rare when someone has a report of a good time had with the in-laws. Nice to come across those exceptions!
