Weekend in Vegas

We woke about 8:30 on Saturday and I made Omelettes and toast for everyone to go with coffee and Mimosa’s on the “patio”.
Breakfast on the Patio in the Sunshine
After, we all (including Henry) got ready and drove in Bob’s Mustang Convertible to a Pet Smart that seemed like it was half way back to the coast. I had called around the dozen or so in Las Vegas and only one had his special dog food and they only had one bag. It’s getting so hard to find - every store no longer stocks it. We really have to wean him onto another food but he has such a delicate tummy. When we got back we spent the rest of the day in the pool and hot tub.
Dinnertime after "Happy Hour"
About 3:00ish we had “Happy Hours” (yes that is “hours”) - “Appies" on the patio. Crab Crescents, Parmesan Bites, (both home baked) 5 kinds of cheese with crackers and of course our friend Jim’s moose meat Kolbassa and smoked sausage. Dale slow roasted a Pork Loin on the BBQ while we sat and gabbed. We were so full by the time it was ready we just had a light salad with it. Later we went into the Casino and had a little fun - some more than others - right Bobby? What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas but I’m sure that his eyes are still bloodshot and the headache will take a while to go away! We’ll remember what happened even if he doesn’t! My $100. grew into $200 but Dale lost his so once more we broke even.

Big Win!


Are we in Paris?!?!
Sunday we went into the Casino and had the breakfast buffet then Christina and Bob had to head back to San Diego. Dale and I headed downtown on the shuttle to walk “The Strip”. We spent a couple of hours there but didn’t like the crowds and the “Hustlers” trying to sell you “free dinner & show tickets” - we may look like tourists but we know nothing in Vegas is FREE! About 1:30 PM we headed back to Sam’s Town to sit at the pool. I went to the nail place and had my nails done while Dale hung out with Henry.
Henry(black collar) met a friend named Olivia(red Collar).
After I got back we had our time at the pool while doing a load of laundry. We were both still full from breakfast so we went over to the casino for a while with our $200. but we lost it by 7:30 so we came back for a snack and some TV. Early to bed - out on the open road in the morning - Gypsies once again and thankful that we arrived in Las Vegas with $300. cash and we’re leaving with $23.28, our shirts and we didn’t have to pawn Henry - Five Fabulous Fun Filled days!
