On the Move

I'm back after traveling to Las Vegas twice in two weeks, once without a computer.
We were meeting up with different friends, Jon and the East Coasters from the US
and then Janeth from Ottawa, Canada.  Hectic, but fun!

We crammed everything we could into our visits,
and my special thing was listening to my favorite band Alter Ego at the 1st Street Stage.
They had transformed into Alter Igor for Halloween.

Terry, Jon, local Jim, and the East Coasters (Harv, Scott, and Catherine)
enjoyed their Mattress Poker Game at the Palazzo.
They had a tournament pot of $150.
Terry placed 2nd winning $60 and Jim 1st winning $90.

Janeth and I took in an immersive exhibit at the Arte Museum on the Strip.
It was fabulous!  Mind-Bending!

During our two trips we saw lots of sports events
(football, baseball, hockey) in different venues.
A definite fun time was Wednesday Night Hockey in Bar Canada at the D!
I was definitely thinking of my blogging buddy Debra who is a big Oilers fan!
Unfortunately the Edmonton Oilers lost to the Calgary Fames 4-3 in a Shootout. 😱

We ate so much great food, which is why I don't want to step on my scale! 😂

I do love Las Vegas!
It takes me away from everything!
I did gamble a little, and I had a win of $288.00 when I won a progressive Straight Flush.
I am not a whale.  I am a low roller.

My Big Win!

Vegas and Alter Ego will just have to manage without me!
Happy weekend!

Now that I'm home, maybe for two months, I'm determined to get on top of my blogging.
We shall see, because life is full of surprises.
Wishing you happiness, fulfillment, and energy!



 Till next time ~
