What Happens in Vegas


All of us at our best










Hi, it's me,
I'm learning that what happens here may not stay here, but it sure moves slow getting out of town. We came to Vegas to get the generator fixed, and it's taken us 3 days to get 'er done.WE ARE LEAVING IN THE MORNING!!! [I hope]

During our time here both boys have met some great people. First there's Tony from Penn. Very nice young [40ish] man visiting his young son [2] for a once a month visit. I believe he's a roofing contractor by trade. He and I talked yesterday about farming in Redding. First choice was cattle. Second was pigs. Faster turnover. So the last I heard of him, he's planning to start a pig farm in Redding. BOY AM I GOOD. The Chamber would be sooooo proud.

Next came the 2 Swedish girls. [21 and 23] Take a guess which boy started talking to them first? [7 yr.old B] But D did all the clean up. B is quite popular with this stomach roll thing he does.

Last evening D came in and told me he and KAT were going to the movies at the casino,without B. D's first date on the trip. B couldn't have cared less. He was sooooo tired from being in the pool from 9:30 am to 8:00 pm, all he wanted to do was go to sleep.

At 9pm B wanted a snack. I gave him grapes. He was sooo tired he had his eyes closed while eating the last several grapes. He was asleep in seconds.

The plan was to get generator fixed this morning before noon and be on our way. But that didn't happen. By the time we were all fixed it was to late to start out so Wed. is the plan.

Everyone we've met here has been very nice.

The boys are both back in their element. They're at the pool swimming and meeting all the girls.

I'm sitting here writing this blog as the cool people are at the pool. OH POOR ME!!

Talk to you later.

Well, I wrote a book and then got redirected to another page to get a Google account and lost my book. Glad to hear that you guys are all having fun. This is a trip of a lifetime. Keep on posting and we'll keep on looking. Geterdone!

Best to you all
