Viva Las Vegas



I'm a bit behind getting these photos up, but here they are!
Joe and I had a really great time in Las Vegas visiting Dennis & Jeni! It's a totally different world out there, and thankfully it was a much sunnier and warmer world! We did the typical walk around the strip, but spent most of our time away from the typical gambling scene. Freemont Street was as close as we got to your "typical Vegas experience" and I was pretty happy with that being the extent of our gambling/partying. I really enjoyed driving out to Red Rock and climbing around and then touring the Hoover Dam and getting a bit of a history lesson--not to mention a groovy hard hat!

Things have been getting crazy recently with spring showing itself and giving everyone a serious case of cabin fever. I've been getting a serious urge to paint but haven't been able to find much time to indulge. I have visions of attempting to sell my small, framed paintings this summer, but that requires the time to paint them first...so I won't hold my breath. Either way, if I can find the time to sit down and paint even just for myself, I'll be a happy camper.
