Las Vegas Baby!

For Christmas I bought dad tickets to see Bob Seger in Concert.  The closest venue was in Las Vegas so I also bought tickets to fly down there.  It was a quick trip....just overnight, but we did alot!

Got off the plane, rented our vehicle and then headed to Hoover Dam.  I was surprised to see the crowds there since it was December 30.

Inside the dam on our tour.





I searched for a hotel on Las Vegas Blvd, where all the big casinos were but the prices were outrageous.  I found this hotel away from the strip.  It was very nice.  Here is the bathroom with all it's marble.

Separate shower from the tub.





Our view down to the pools.



We drove the loop at Red Rock Canyon.  It would be a place to visit again when we have time to hike.









Since lunch was Panda Express, I wanted to eat somewhere nice.  Yup.  We did.  Food was good but you only got what you paid for.......2 filet steaks and salads, even veggies and potatoes cost extra!  It definitely was a good steak though!
Concert was good...hopefully your dad had a great time!  We were a bit late getting to the concert because there was no where to park so I left my camera in the car.  Hence no pics of the concert.  We flew home the next morning.  A great way to end 2011!

Christmas 2011 part 2








Puzzled about the plane tickets.

Seeing the tickets to Bob Seger.





I could not let this Christmas go by without buying a toy for Joel!  








After we ate prime rib, we picked up Janessa in Kemmerer and headed to the cabin for the night.  Joel and dad went skiing the next day while Janessa and I tried to do some after Christmas shopping in Logan.  It was a quiet Christmas but still nice.
